Dual identity generalizes contact benefits because subgroup links stay intact

Evidence

With a dual identity relative to the pure one-group representation, the benefits of intergroup contact may more easily generalize to additional outgroup members because the associative link to their original group identity remains intact, as in Hewstone and Brown’s (1986) Mutual Intergroup Differentiation Model. Although the convergence of several of Allport’s ideas suggests the potential value of a dual identity, this particular concept was not articulated in The Nature of Prejudice. — John F.
