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...

Surveys

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.

Social Identity

16
Social identity constitutes a significant aspect of an individual’s self-concept, shaped by membership in various social groups, including gender, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and political affiliation. Individuals associate specific traits with particular social groups, leading to internalization of these traits. For example, musicians are often perceived as creative, while women are frequently associated with nurturing tendencies. Once individuals identify with a...

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Prejudice Reduction

Background:

  • Intergroup contact theory offers a framework for understanding prejudice reduction.
  • Transgender prejudice remains a significant social issue, necessitating research into effective mitigation strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of intergroup contact quantity and quality on explicit and implicit anti-transgender prejudice.
  • To examine the mediating role of intergroup anxiety in these relationships.

Main Methods:

  • Cross-sectional study utilizing structural equation modeling.
  • Online survey data from 354 participants assessing contact, prejudice, and anxiety.
  • Controlled for demographic variables like gender, religiosity, and political conservatism.

Main Results:

  • Greater quantity of contact correlated with reduced implicit anti-transgender prejudice.
  • Higher quality of contact correlated with reduced explicit and implicit anti-transgender prejudice.
  • Intergroup anxiety mediated the link between quality of contact and both explicit/implicit prejudice.

Conclusions:

  • Both the amount and quality of intergroup contact are crucial for reducing anti-transgender prejudice.
  • Intergroup anxiety plays a significant role in how contact quality influences prejudice, particularly implicit bias.
