Popis:	Extending prior work on collective self-verification (e.g., Chen, Chen, & Shaw, 2004), the present study examined possible antecedents and long-term correlates of collective self-verification among members of a naturally occurring group. Group members were randomly paired and collective self-verification was assessed in terms of the degree of correspondence between ratings of the self as a group member and partners' ratings of the self as a member. Greater correspondence in self- and partner ratings was found for attributes that group members idiographically deemed highly central to defining the group relative to their idiographic, low-centrality attributes. Moreover, this attribute centrality effect was particularly apparent among highly identified group members. Finally, self–partner correspondence was positively associated with participants' perceptions of themselves as prototypical group members and their dedication to the group, both assessed months later.
