Exit stage left and sit and wait for Lady O to bleat that she is being victimised, stalked, whatever. Or for one of her minders to tell me to leave her alone.

They never see that SHE posts almost directly after I do and has such an inflated sense of her own importance that she ASSUMES every word relates to her even if she is NOT mentioned.

As you were.

Just remind you - you were just as rude (ruder in fact) when I joined and first posted on this forum a long time ago now. It was your foul language and rudeness that brought you to my attention.

But often those who DISH IT cannot take it and you are a perfect case in point.

I know you just cannot ABIDE having your hypocrisy pointed out. Liars need good memories.

Tausch, Hewstone, Kenworthy, Psaltis, Schmid, Popan, Cairns, and Hughes (2010) showed that contact with one group can, in some circumstances, curb prejudice to other groups as well. In particular, after contact with one group, individuals form positive attitudes with this collective. These positive attitudes then bias the formation of attitudes towards other groups as well, called attitude generalization.

Tausch, Hewstone, Kenworthy, Psaltis, Schmid, Popan, Cairns, and Hughes (2010) conducted a series of studies to verify these arguments. One study showed that Cypriot Greeks who had often, rather than never, interacted with Cypriot Turks not only formed more positive attitudes towards these Cypriot Turks but also formed more positive attitudes towards residents of Turkey. Cypriot Turks also showed the same pattern of observations in their attitudes towards Cypriot and mainland Greeks.

And hopefully this forum also promotes positive attitudes towards those in 'the other' community (and beyond)........but I won't count on it!

Amateur psychology!

Nevertheless, this is the main reason Turkey has set-up and rigorously enforces Apartheid in Cyprus!

Actually, the original publication is from a professional journal, ranked third in the field and with a reasonable impact factor of 4.7.

Be that as it may, the field of psychology is established on attempting to find "scientific" reasons for everyday behaviours [-- wonder if they can explain the forum gasbag's psychosis? Hope she doesn't go on and on about her blocked toilets causing her constipation, until she ruins yet another thread.]

Anyway, the main thrust of my post was regarding how effectively the Turks are utilising this estrangement tool by administering Apartheid in Cyprus.

Been there... done that many times and there aren't any.

Actually, the Cypriot study was only one of four within the paper (but you already know that as you must have read it in detail and carefully considered the aims, methodologies, results and conclusions to decide that it is 'worthless').

Let's hope your leaders don't agree with you.
