Abstract

We measure ingroup bias in the context of real social groups operating in a slum and investigate which ingroup members’ features affect it. We find that higher homogeneity within the group and stronger relationship with the super-categorized group (the community of people living in the slum) significantly reduce the gap between outgroup versus ingroup donations.
