Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies02:09

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

28.1K
When we hold a stereotype about a person, we have expectations that he or she will fulfill that stereotype. A self-fulfilling prophecy is an expectation held by a person that alters his or her behavior in a way that tends to make it true. When we hold stereotypes about a person, we tend to treat the person according to our expectations. This treatment can influence the person to act according to our stereotypic expectations, thus confirming our stereotypic beliefs. Research by Rosenthal and...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

13.1K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Impression Management Techniques IV: Altercasting

260
Altercasting is a strategic communication technique in which an individual imposes a specific identity or social role onto another person to influence their behavior and shape the interaction. By presuming a role—such as “responsible leader” or “patient person”—altercasting encourages the target to conform to that identity, often aligning their behavior with the expectations associated with the role. The power of this tactic lies in its subtlety; once a role...

Confirmation Biases01:31

Confirmation Biases

6.0K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

77.8K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Area of Science:

  • Mental Health Research
  • Social Psychology
  • Public Health Interventions

Background:

  • Contact-based antistigma programs demonstrate greater efficacy than educational approaches.
  • Prior research identified 32 key ingredients for effective contact-based programs across 5 categories.
  • This study validates these ingredients with an independent sample of advocates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To gather feedback from advocates with lived experience on the importance of 32 key ingredients for contact-based antistigma programs.
  • To identify the most critical components for designing and implementing effective stigma reduction strategies.
  • To inform the development of best practices for contact-based interventions.

Main Methods:

  • An online survey was administered to 100 advocates with lived experience of mental health conditions.
  • Participants had experience leading, coordinating, or delivering antistigma presentations.
  • Respondents ranked the importance of 32 pre-identified program ingredients.

Main Results:

  • Key ingredients for program design include face-to-face presentations and audience discussion.
  • Effective targeting involves identifying specific groups and assessing their needs for tailored stigma change goals.
  • Presenters with lived experience and messages featuring recovery stories ("on-the-way-up") are crucial.
  • Post-presentation follow-up actions should be discussed with the target audience.

Conclusions:

  • The study highlights essential components for optimizing contact-based antistigma programs.
  • Findings can guide the development of more impactful and sustainable stigma reduction initiatives.
  • Future research aims to develop a fidelity measure for these programs to ensure consistent implementation.
