Final Answer : False, Explanation :  Research on intergroup relations suggests that members of disadvantaged groups who highly identify with their group are more likely to emphasize differences and inequalities between groups, seeking to address and rectify power imbalances. In contrast, highly identified members of advantaged groups might prefer to emphasize commonalities to maintain the status quo and reduce perceptions of intergroup conflict.
