Abstract

Abstract. The current study investigated category-based activation of stereotypes when processing of the category primes is mandatory. In three high-powered pre-registered experiments (total n = 211), we compared responses to age-stereotypic traits (e.g., lonely) after presenting matching versus mismatching category primes (old vs. young faces) of which the age information had to be remembered. Experiments varied in stimulus-onset asynchronies (SOA; 250 ms vs. 500 ms) and in the inclusion of neutral conditions of prime and target factors. Consistently across all experiments, no facilitation of matching category primes was observed, indicating that category information alone does not facilitate processing of matching stereotypes even if it is attended. The theoretical and practical implications for activation and representation of stereotypes are discussed.
年龄刻板印象的自动激活
摘要本研究调查了当类别启动的加工是强制性的时,刻板印象的基于类别的激活。在三个高强度的预注册实验中(共211个),我们比较了在呈现匹配和不匹配类别启动(年老和年轻的面孔)后对年龄刻板印象特征(如孤独)的反应,这些类别启动需要记住年龄信息。刺激启动的异步实验(SOA;250 ms vs 500 ms),并包括中性条件下的主要和目标因素。在所有实验中,没有观察到匹配类别启动的促进作用,这表明单独的类别信息即使有参与也不会促进匹配刻板印象的加工。讨论了刻板印象的激活和表征的理论和实践意义。
