The contact hypothesis suggests that the more contact individuals have with people who are different from them, the more their attitudes towards that group will become positive. This idea is supported by research and is often used as a strategy to reduce prejudice and increase intergroup cooperation. Accommodation theory refers to the process of adjusting one's communication style to match that of the person they are interacting with. Intercultural communication competence theory focuses on developing skills to effectively communicate across cultural differences. Ethnocentrism is the belief that one's own culture is superior to others.
