The confederates in the video described a picture and touched or rubbed their face. A base line period was recorded of the frequency that the participants touched or rubbed their face. It was found that participants were detected to touch or rub their face more frequently when viewing the video of the in group member when compared to the baseline period. Conversely, when the out group member was presented the frequency of face touching or rubbing decreased because the desire to affiliate is low and subsequently so was the behavioural mimicry.
Nationalism is... essentially sub-human

Spencer and Wollman
Thus, even nations lacking a state of their own, e. g. Palestinians who are stateless, define themselves in terms of their cultural and psychological belonging or heritage and not in terms of what territory they live within, thus in terms of their nation. When assessing Miller's statement according to the above mentioned definitions, it seems like Miller's idea is irrational, since the right of all people to self-determination has been acknowledge by the UN, thus the nation should have the same right (The Right to Self-determination of peoples UN 1984).
