The present research examined different mediation effects of perception of ingroupresponsibility as a predictor of group-based guilt and shame. Two studies (n1 = 174; n2 = 145), conducted in Bosnia and Herzegovina with Serbian participants, showedthat perception of ingroup responsibility for atrocities perpetrated against an outgroupled to greater feelings of guilt directly, and also indirectly through personal acceptanceof ingroup responsibility. In contrast, it led to greater feelings of shame directly andalso indirectly through a perception of threatened group image. In addition, Study 2 showed that perceived legitimacy of personal acceptance of ingroup responsibilitymoderated the relationship between perception and acceptance of ingroup responsibility.
