Intergroup threat occurs when one group's resources, beliefs, or values challenge the goal attainment or well-being of another group.This perceived threat will lead to negative out-group attitudes and behaviors.Based on the intergroup threat literature and relevant theories, intergroup threat was classified into three categories, realistic threat, cultural threat and identity threat.The theoretical model on the relation between intergroup threat and prejudice has evolved from single threat model to integrated one.Future researches should pay more attention to the exploration of relationship between different types of threats, the modification of current models, and the development of intergroup theories in Chinese context.
