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...

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.

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...

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

37.5K
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...

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...

In- and Out-Groups

38.9K
People all belong to a gender, race, age, and social economic group. These groups provide a powerful source of our identity and self-esteem (Tajfel & Turner, 1979) and serve as our in-groups. An in-group is a group that we identify with or see ourselves as belonging to.

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Criminology
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Racial and ethnic identity are crucial factors in understanding social phenomena.
  • Hate crime perception is complex and influenced by multiple variables.
  • Existing research often overlooks the intersectional impact of offender, victim, and respondent identities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate how respondents' racial/ethnic identity affects their perception of racial/ethnic hate crimes.
  • To examine the moderating roles of offender, victim, and respondent races/ethnicities in hate crime recognition.
  • To explore the influence of social identity theory and power relations on hate crime perception.

Main Methods:

  • A factorial survey experiment was conducted with a diverse sample of U.S. adults (n=2,021) recruited via MTurk.
  • Logistic regression models with robust standard errors were used to analyze the data.
  • Vignette assignments were randomized to isolate the effects of different identity combinations.

Main Results:

  • Racial/ethnic identity significantly moderates hate crime perception.
  • Both offender-victim dynamics and respondent's own background shape hate crime recognition.
  • Distinct patterns of recognition were observed between minority and non-Hispanic white respondents.
  • The Majority-Minority pattern emerged as a primary driver of perception, irrespective of group membership.

Conclusions:

  • Racial/ethnic variances in hate crime recognition are evident and linked to respondent identity.
  • Social identity theory, particularly group image management and ingroup favoritism, partially explains these variances.
  • Enhanced understanding of group identity is vital for improving hate crime reporting and data collection practices.
