| Sumario: | A study was conducted to determine whether the affective and cognitive components of group relative deprivation are differentially linked to willingness to participate in protest action among Indian South Africans. Data drawn from a group of 120 subjects were subject to multiple regression analysis. Findings indicated that blacks' standing was perceived as inferior, whites' position as superior, and coloreds' position as resembling that of the in-group. It was found that the affective component of the regression analysis clarified a greater proportion of the variance, confirming the importance of differentiating between the cognitive and affective constituents of group relative deprivation when estimating protest orientation.
