Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

15.5K
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...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

95.4K
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...

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies02:09

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

42.5K
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...

Measurement of Air Content in Concrete01:23

Measurement of Air Content in Concrete

674
Air content measurement in concrete is critical for ensuring structural integrity and durability of concrete structures, especially in environments prone to severe weather conditions. Accurate air content analysis optimizes concrete's resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and enhances its workability and strength. Several methods are standardized under ASTM guidelines to measure the air content in fresh concrete, each suitable for different concrete types and conditions.
The pressure method,...

Distribution of Cytoplasmic Content02:33

Distribution of Cytoplasmic Content

4.7K
Cytokinesis segregates a cell’s chromosomes and organelles into its daughter cells. Organelles divide and grow prior to cell division but cannot be synthesized de novo; therefore, cells must receive at least one copy of each organelle to survive. Currently, many of the details of how the organelles are distributed are not yet fully elucidated.
Distribution of cytoplasmic determinants
The cytoplasm contains various organelles, as well as salts, proteins, and water. The distribution of...

Moisture Content and Bulking of Aggregate01:10

Moisture Content and Bulking of Aggregate

478
The moisture content of aggregates is a crucial factor in construction, particularly in concrete mixing, as it influences the total water required in the mix. Moisture content represents the water coated on the exterior surface of the aggregate existing in a saturated and surface-dry condition. The total water content of a moist aggregate is the sum of its moisture content and water absorption.
When aggregates are exposed to rain or sit in stockpiles, they absorb moisture, which must be...

Summary

Social cognition consistently uses warmth and competence dimensions. The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) explains how social structure influences stereotypes, emotions, and discrimination.

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Social Cognition
  • Stereotype Research

Background:

  • Social cognition involves understanding individuals and groups.
  • Two core dimensions, perceived warmth and competence, are fundamental.
  • These dimensions have been observed across various psychological theories and historical research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and validate the Stereotype Content Model (SCM).
  • To propose a comprehensive causal theory linking social structure to stereotypes, emotions, and discrimination.
  • To demonstrate the generalizability and reliability of the warmth and competence dimensions.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized diverse methodologies including surveys, cultural studies, laboratory experiments, and biobehavioral approaches.

  • Ensured reliability and validity in measuring the core dimensions of warmth and competence.
  • Examined the framework's consistency across different geographical locations, societal levels, and time periods.

    • Main Results:

    • The Big Two dimensions (warmth and competence) were consistently measured across various methods and contexts.
    • Evidence supports the generalizability of these dimensions across place, levels, and time.
    • The SCM framework demonstrates a causal pathway from social structure to stereotypes, emotions, and discrimination.

    Conclusions:

    • The Stereotype Content Model provides a robust framework for understanding social cognition.
    • The dimensions of warmth and competence are fundamental and widely applicable.
    • The SCM offers practical implications for understanding and addressing stereotypes and discrimination.
