Abstract

Objective: Research has not often delved into the experiences of the Moroccan-heritage community in Western societies. We followed a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative with quantitative methods, applying an intersectionality perspective to analyze the feelings and perceptions of Moroccan-heritage people about their situation in Spain, interaction with Spaniards, perceived discrimination, and metaperceptions to understand their affective reactions to injustice (Studies 1 and 2), and willingness to mobilize (Study 2).

Method: In Study 1, we conducted four discussion groups with Moroccan-heritage women (n = 12) and men (n = 13) separately. In Study 2, we analyzed with a quantitative survey (n = 147) participants' identity fusion with Morocco and Spain, perceived metaprejudice and discrimination, metadehumanization, the evaluation of the ingroup situation, affective reactions to their situation, and support of collective actions for their rights.

Results: The analysis of Study 1 revealed experiences of discrimination and spontaneous positive but also negative metaperceptions, especially among women, including an alarming metadehumanization. Quantitative analyses in Study 2 confirmed gender differences, with women reporting worse feelings and perceptions, and confirmed that metadehumanization was crucial to predict indignation and anger of Moroccan-heritage people, while perceived discrimination was significant for mobilization.

Conclusions: Although gender differences need additional clarification, these findings advance our theoretical knowledge about the sources of shared grievances among disadvantaged group members and the role of metadehumanization in their affective reactions to injustice. Interventions are urgent to address metadehumanization and canalize its affective consequences to promote social change. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

西班牙摩洛哥裔男女的声音和经历:通过混合方法了解对不公正的情感反应。
目的:有关摩洛哥遗产社区在西方社会的经历的研究并不多见。我们采用混合方法,将定性与定量方法相结合,运用交叉性视角分析摩洛哥遗产人对其在西班牙的处境、与西班牙人的互动、感知到的歧视以及元观念的感受和看法,以了解他们对不公正的情感反应(研究 1 和 2)以及动员意愿(研究 2):在研究 1 中,我们分别与摩洛哥裔女性(12 人)和男性(13 人)进行了四次小组讨论。在研究 2 中,我们通过定量调查(n = 147)分析了参与者与摩洛哥和西班牙的身份融合、感知到的元偏见和歧视、元人性化、对内部群体状况的评价、对自身状况的情感反应以及对争取自身权利的集体行动的支持:研究 1 的分析显示了歧视经历和自发的积极但也消极的元观念,尤其是在妇女中,包括令人震惊的元人性化。研究 2 的定量分析证实了性别差异,妇女报告的感受和观念更差,并证实元人性化对预测摩洛哥遗产人的愤慨和愤怒至关重要,而感知到的歧视对动员具有重要意义:尽管性别差异还需要进一步澄清,但这些研究结果推进了我们对弱势群体成员共同不满的来源以及元人性化在他们对不公正的情感反应中所起作用的理论认识。当务之急是采取干预措施,以解决元人性化问题并消除其情感后果,从而促进社会变革。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, 版权所有)。
