Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

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...

Attitudes01:54

Attitudes

25.9K
Attitude is our evaluation of a person, an idea, or an object. We have attitudes for many things ranging from products that we might pick up in the supermarket to people around the world to political policies. Typically, attitudes are favorable or unfavorable: positive or negative (Eagly & Chaiken, 1993). And, they have three components: an affective component (feelings), a behavioral component (the effect of the attitude on behavior), and a cognitive component (belief and knowledge;...

Implicit Personality Theories01:23

Implicit Personality Theories

712
Implicit personality theory explains how individuals make assumptions about the relationships between personality traits, behaviors, and character types. When people learn that someone possesses a particular trait, they tend to infer the presence of other related characteristics, forming a cohesive impression. This cognitive shortcut plays a crucial role in social interactions and interpersonal judgments.Central Traits and Their InfluenceSolomon Asch's seminal 1946 study highlighted the power...

Framing Effects03:26

Framing Effects

7.8K
Information is everywhere and its presentation—such as how and when items are presented—can impact our perceptions and decisions surrounding the info. This broad concept umbrellas framing effects—influences that occur due to the way information is framed in its appearance, whether it’s purely the order or the specific wording of a message. Let’s take a look at numerous ways in which two versions of something can objectively say the same thing, yet we respond in...

First Impression01:09

First Impression

422
First impressions play a crucial role in social perception, shaping how individuals assess others in professional, academic, and interpersonal contexts. Psychological research highlights the significance of cognitive biases, such as the primacy and recency effects, which influence how people interpret and recall information.The Primacy Effect and Cognitive AnchoringThe primacy effect describes the tendency for initial information to impact judgment disproportionately. When individuals encounter...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

13.0K
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...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Social experiences unconsciously shape performance. Eye movements during the Implicit Association Test (IAT) reveal implicit attitudes, with longer fixations indicating attitude-disconfirming information.

Area of Science:

  • Social cognition research
  • Psychology of implicit bias

Background:

  • Social experiences influence behavior without conscious awareness.
  • Implicit attitudes, often unexamined, can affect cognitive processes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate if ethnic category/attribute pairs influence eye movements.
  • To explore the connection between eye movements and implicit attitudes within the Implicit Association Test (IAT).

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Implicit Association Test (IAT) to measure implicit attitudes.
  • Analyzed eye movement data, specifically fixation duration, during the IAT task.
  • Examined fixation patterns in response to ethnic category/attribute pairings.

Main Results:

  • Fixation duration was found to predict implicit attitudes.
  • Increased fixation duration occurred when category/attribute pairs disconfirmed existing implicit negative attitudes.
  • Eye movements during the IAT reflect underlying implicit processes.

Conclusions:

  • Eye movements are linked to implicit attitude processing in the IAT.
  • The study provides evidence for a broader connection between oculomotor behavior and implicit cognition.
  • Implicit social cognition influences observable behaviors like eye movements.
