Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

90.1K
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...

Naturalistic Observations

15.4K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.7K
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...

Self-Discrepancy Theory

One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Ethnic Identity within a Larger Culture

30
Adolescents from ethnic minority backgrounds face a multifaceted journey in forming their identities, shaped by the intersections of cultural expectations and personal exploration. For these adolescents, identity formation involves not only typical developmental challenges but also navigating the perceptions and attitudes of the majority culture. As they grow, adolescents in ethnic minority groups often become increasingly aware of stereotypes, social biases, and discrimination, all of which...

Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

32.6K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Health
  • Social Determinants of Health
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Public green spaces are increasingly recognized for their health benefits.
  • However, the influence of chronic discrimination on nature experiences is often overlooked.
  • Discrimination can manifest as racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of bias.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify the association between everyday discrimination and satisfaction with nature experiences.
  • To examine the relationship between discrimination and time spent in natural environments.
  • To investigate how racial/ethnic and gender identity modify these associations.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized data from the 2018 National Opinion Research Center (NORC) General Social Survey (GSS).
  • Employed the Everyday Discrimination Scale (EDS) to measure discrimination frequency.
  • Used survey-weighted robust Poisson models to analyze associations with nature satisfaction and time spent in nature.

Main Results:

  • 14% of respondents reported dissatisfaction with nature experiences.
  • Higher everyday discrimination frequency was associated with increased dissatisfaction with nature (PR: 1.07).
  • Increased discrimination was also linked to spending less time in nature than desired (PR: 1.02).

Conclusions:

  • Greater frequency of everyday discrimination is linked to lower satisfaction with nature experiences.
  • This association may hinder the effectiveness of green interventions in promoting health equity.
  • Future public health strategies should consider the impact of discrimination on nature engagement.
