1) We have a positive view of our in-group(s).
2) If this positive view is threatened, the source is derogated (a) to preserve or enhance self-esteem, (b) to protect group interests, and/or (c) to maintain group position.
3) Competition for resources may engender prejudice. This type of prejudice can be overcome with a superordinate goal (one that requires cooperation between groups to achieve).
