Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

95.9K
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.

Robbers Cave

During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

In- and Out-Groups

44.1K
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.

Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

37.8K
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...

Ethnic Identity within a Larger Culture01:27

Ethnic Identity within a Larger Culture

373
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...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Social Sciences
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Racial affinity caucusing (RAC) involves participants gathering in self-identified racial groups to discuss race and racism.
  • The application and impact of RAC within graduate medical education (GME) remain under-explored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the experiences of graduate medical trainees participating in RAC.
  • To understand the utility of RAC as a tool in GME settings.

Main Methods:

  • A qualitative study involving interviews with 8 GME trainees (1 White, 7 BIPOC) who participated in RAC.
  • Direct content analysis was used to analyze interview transcripts from the 2021-2022 academic year.

Main Results:

  • Trainees reported RAC created a safe space for discussion.
  • Participants identified RAC as a valuable space for self-reflection.

Conclusions:

  • Despite a small sample size, RAC shows potential as an impactful tool in GME.
  • RAC may help address deficits in self-reflection and professional identity development.
  • GME institutions are encouraged to integrate RAC into their curricula.
