Research showed that focusing people's attention on a shared threat can reduce the effect of mortality salience on prejudice.

Mortality salience, or awareness of one's own impending death, causes anxiety, which activates a defense mechanism for cognitive control, affecting various human behaviors and psychological processes.

As a defense mechanism, mortality salience has the ability to trigger a worldview defensive system, a psychological mechanism that reinforces people's correlation with their in-group. According to studies, mortality salience can make people feel more motivated to punish minor moral transgressions.
