PSYC12H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Implicit Stereotype, Joystick, Subtyping
Document Summary
Mostly focused on the pessimistic side in this class. There are things we can do to improve situations. A) movie and iat, blacks and white were shown movies of stereotypic content, white shown positive content. The movies they watched affected their scores in iat. Attitudes are fluctuating and can be impacted based on the content we see. Implicit stereotypes change after training (kawaikami & phills 2007 joystick study) Used approach/avoidance training, participants saw pictures, and were trained to bring joy stick closer when seen a black face and away when white face. They saw that there was an embodiment affect (black push, white approach and vice versa) Hypothesis: if you go to a all womens college you will have less stereotypic views. This difference is due to exposure to counter-sterotypical women, not to pre-existing differences. Dv: iat > male + leader/female + supporter vs.
