This study examined the perceptions of undergraduate women in male-dominated academic areas. First-year and final-year female undergraduates a area (i.e., math, science, or engineering) reported higher levels discrimination stereotype threat than female-dominated arts, education, humanities, social science), men either male-or area. Moreover, were most likely to report thinking about changing their major. These findings suggest that college students majoring engineering continue perceive...
In 4 studies, the authors examined effect of approaching Blacks on implicit racial attitudes and immediacy behaviors. Studies 1-3, participants were trained to pull a joystick toward themselves or push it away from when presented with photographs Blacks, Whites, Asians before completing an Implicit Association Test measure bias. Study 4, this training procedure nonverbal behavior in interracial contact situation was investigated. Results studies demonstrated that decreased participants'...
Studies with adults suggest that implicit preferences favoring White versus Black individuals can be reduced through exposure to positive exemplars. However, it remains unclear whether developmental differences exist in the capacity for these biases changed. This study included 369 children and examined their racial bias would following Results showed children's pro‐White was exemplars, but only older ( M age = ~10 years). Younger ~7 years) not affected by this intervention. These results...
The ability to discriminate visually based on race emerges early in infancy: 3-month-olds can perceptually differentiate faces by and 6-month-olds categorize race. Between ages 6 8 years, children sort others into racial groups. But what extent are these abilities influenced context? In this article, we review studies children's categorization discuss how our conclusions affected ask the questions (i.e., methods stimuli), where them diversity of child's surrounding environment), whom study)....
Women underperform on standardized math tests compared to men. However, girls perform as well if not better than boys in math. In this paper, it is proposed that discrepancy may be explained part by a process of stereotype stratification, which targets negative in‐group view themselves member subgroup the does apply. Two experiments with elementary‐school children provide support for theory. Study 1, placed advanced pictures males more often basic pictures. addition, rated men liking and...
Research suggests that exposure to stories about Black adults who are contributing positively their community can reduce implicit pro-White/anti-Black racial bias in older children (ages 9-12). The aim of the current research was replicate and extend this finding by investigating whether a different child-friendly manipulation exposing positive exemplars negative White could decrease aged 5 12 years, both immediately following intervention 1 hr later. In addition, second examine exemplar...
Using data from 15 countries, this article investigates whether descriptive and prescriptive gender norms concerning housework child care (domestic work) changed after the onset of COVID-19 pandemic. Results a total 8,343 participants ( M = 19.95, SD 1.68) two comparable student samples suggest that about unpaid domestic work have been affected by pandemic, with individuals seeing mothers’ relative to fathers’ share as even larger. Moderation analyses revealed effect pandemic on decreased...
The goal of this research was to examine children's implicit racial attitudes. Across three studies, a total 359 White 5‐ 12‐year‐olds completed child‐friendly exemplar (Affective Priming Task; Affect Misattribution Procedure) and category‐based (Implicit Association Test) measures Younger children (5‐ 8‐year‐olds) showed automatic ingroup positivity toward child exemplars, whereas older (9‐ 12‐year‐olds) did not. Children also no evidence negativity Black despite demonstrating consistent...
Proponents of what has been termed the Gender Similarities Hypothesis (GSH) have typically relied on meta-analyses as well generation nonsignificant tests mean differences to support their argument that genders are more similar than they different. In present article, we argue alternative statistical methodologies, such equivalence, can provide accurate (yet equally rigorous) these hypotheses and therefore might serve complement, challenge, and/or extend findings from meta-analyses. To...
People belong to multiple social groups, which may have conflicting stereotypic associations. A manager evaluating an Asian woman for a computer programming job could be influenced by negative gender stereotypes or positive racial stereotypes. We hypothesized that evaluations of candidates can depend upon what group is more salient, even when both are apparent. In three studies, using student (Study 1) and nonstudent (Studies 2 3) samples, we compared ratings American female applicant after...
Abstract Initial theory and research examining children’s implicit racial attitudes suggest that an preference favoring socially advantaged groups emerges early in childhood remains stable across development (Dunham, Baron, & Banaji, 2008). In two studies, we examined the ubiquity of this by measuring non‐Black minority non‐White majority toward White Black outgroups distinct cultural contexts. Study 1, children urban North American community with a large population showed pro‐White...
Discrimination in the evaluation of others is a key cause social inequality around world. However, relatively little known about psychological interventions that can be used to prevent biased evaluations. The limited evidence exists on these strategies spread across many methods and populations, making it difficult generate reliable best practices effective contexts. In present work, we held research contest solicit with goal reducing discrimination based physical attractiveness using...
Do people have mental representations of what apologetic faces look like? differ by gender? We used reverse correlation to (a) generate images that approximate faces, (b) determine whether these are rated highly on apology-related characteristics, and (c) see if ratings gender the image generator, target face, and/or rater. Faces generated from male female base were as more apologetic, remorseful, sad than demonstrating can be approximated using correlation. Findings suggest visually...
Implicit attitudes are evaluations that made automatically, unconsciously, unintentionally, or without conscious and deliberative processing (Gawronski & DeHouwer, 2014; Nosek et al., 2007). For the last two decades implicit measures have been developed used to assess people's social cognition, with most widely measure being Association Test (IAT; Greenwald 2003). This has extensively racial biases a number of studies examined reliability IAT when administered adults (Bar-Anan Nosek,...
