Peltokorpi, V. (2020). Host country national employees’ prosocial behavior toward expatriates in foreign subsidiaries: A common ingroup identity model perspective. International Business Review, 29(2).

Of course, unexplored here is the reverse, that interacting with expatriates helps them identify more with the MNE.
