Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

92.1K
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...

Surveys02:16

Surveys

16.1K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Bias01:22

Bias

5.8K
Bias refers to any tendency that prevents a question from being considered unprejudiced. In research, bias occurs when one outcome or answer is selected or encouraged over others in sampling or testing. Bias can occur during any research phase, including study design, data collection, analysis, and publication.
In statistics, a sampling bias is created when a sample is collected from a population, and some members of the population are not as likely to be chosen as others (remember, each member...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.9K
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...

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

39.6K
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...

Cause and Effect01:53

Cause and Effect

11.5K
While variables are sometimes correlated because one does cause the other, it could also be that some other factor, a confounding variable, is actually causing the systematic movement in our variables of interest. For instance, as sales in ice cream increase, so does the overall rate of crime. Is it possible that indulging in your favorite flavor of ice cream could send you on a crime spree? Or, after committing crime do you think you might decide to treat yourself to a cone?

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Implicit negative affect predicts explicit prejudice, but only when individuals hold negative beliefs about Black Americans. Fewer negative beliefs can reduce prejudice, even with high implicit negative affect.

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Political Psychology

Background:

  • Implicit bias, measured as negative affect, can predict antisocial outcomes.
  • Concept knowledge about social groups may influence the relationship between implicit negative affect and explicit prejudice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate whether beliefs about Black Americans moderate the link between implicit negative affect and explicit prejudice.
  • To extend prior laboratory findings on implicit bias to real-world survey data.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of data from the American National Election Studies (ANES) 2008 Time Series Study.
  • Analysis of data from Project Implicit.

Main Results:

  • Participants with high implicit negative affect showed more explicit prejudice when holding negative beliefs about Black Americans.
  • Conversely, participants with high implicit negative affect showed less explicit prejudice when holding fewer negative beliefs about Black Americans.

Conclusions:

  • Beliefs about social groups play a crucial role in moderating the impact of implicit negative affect on explicit prejudice.
  • Findings support psychological constructionist and dynamic models of evaluation.
  • The study provides an ecologically valid extension of previous laboratory research on implicit bias.
