Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

90.0K
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...

Attitudes

28.2K
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;...

Reliability and Validity01:29

Reliability and Validity

12.7K
Reliability and validity are two important considerations that must be made with any type of data collection. Reliability refers to the ability to consistently produce a given result. In the context of psychological research, this would mean that any instruments or tools used to collect data do so in consistent, reproducible ways.

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.0K
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...

Social Proof00:52

Social Proof

27.5K
Social proof is a form of persuasion based on comparison and conformity. People compare their behavior and actions to what others are doing and will change to conform to do what their peers do.

Surveys02:16

Surveys

14.7K
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.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Implicit and explicit attitudes share reliability factors, with certainty and self-relevance boosting consistency. Even consciously controlled attitudes can be unstable short-term.

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Attitude Measurement
  • Dual-Process Models

Background:

  • Dual-process models often emphasize differences between implicit and explicit attitudes.
  • However, shared properties, particularly in measurement reliability, warrant further investigation.
  • Understanding attitude reliability is crucial for accurate psychological assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate shared factors influencing the test-retest reliability of implicit and explicit attitudes.
  • To explore topic-level heterogeneity in attitude measurement reliability.
  • To identify moderators that impact the short-term and longitudinal stability of attitudes.

Main Methods:

  • Analyzed test-retest reliability of implicit and explicit attitude measures across 75 topics (N > 35,000) within a single session (Study 1).
  • Examined potential moderators like attitude certainty and self-relevance.
  • Replicated short-term reliability findings (Study 2) and assessed longitudinal stability (Study 3).

Main Results:

  • Explicit attitudes demonstrated higher test-retest reliability than implicit attitudes.
  • Both attitude types showed significant topic-specific reliability variations.
  • Attitudes perceived as more distinctive, self-relevant, certain, and accessible exhibited higher reliability.

Conclusions:

  • Shared moderators significantly influence the reliability of both implicit and explicit attitudes.
  • Attitude measurement reliability is dynamic, with even consciously controlled attitudes showing short-term instability.
  • Findings suggest a more nuanced understanding of the relationship between attitude constructs and their measurement.
