====Superordinate identities==== Under the contact hypothesis, several models have been developed. A number of these models utilize a ''superordinate identity'' to reduce prejudice. That is, a more broadly defined, ‘umbrella’ group/identity that includes the groups that are in conflict. By emphasizing this superordinate identity, individuals in both subgroups can share a common social identity.<ref name=Hornsey>{{Cite journal | last1 = Hornsey | first1 = M.

Models utilizing superordinate identities include the [[common ingroup identity]] model, the ingroup projection model, the mutual intergroup differentiation model, and the ingroup identity model.<ref name=Hornsey/> Similarly, "recategorization" is a broader term used by Gaertner et al. to describe the strategies aforementioned.<ref name="Gaertner"/>
