ATTITUDE

Define “What is an Attitude?”

39 What is an ATTITUDE?

An attitude is your evaluation of some concept (person, place, thing or idea). An explicit attitude is the kind of attitude that you deliberately think about and report. For example, you could tell someone whether or not you like math. That is your explicit attitude. Implicit attitudes are positive and negative evaluations that occur outside of our conscious awareness and control. Even if you say that you like math (your explicit attitude), it is possible that you associate math with negativity without knowing it. In this case, we would say that your implicit attitude toward math is negative.

STEREOTYPE

Define “What is a Stereotype?”

What is a STEREOTYPE?

Stereotypes are the belief that most members of a group have some characteristic. Some examples of stereotypes are the belief that women are nurturing or the belief that police officers like donuts. An explicit stereotype is the kind that you deliberately think about and report. An is one that occurs outside of conscious awareness and control. Even if you say that men and women are equally good at math, it is possible that you associate math with men without knowing it. In this case, we would say that you have an implicit math-men stereotype.

40 IMPLICIT BIAS

Define “What is an Implicit Bias?”

What is an IMPLICIT BIAS?

Social psychologists use the word to describe people who report and approve negative attitudes toward groups. Most people who show an implicit preference for one group (e.g., White people) over another (e.g. Black people) are not prejudiced by this definition — biases that are not endorsed, may even be contradictory to what one consciously believes. So, we would not say that such people are prejudiced.

Where do Implicit preferences for implicit attitudes majority groups (e.g. White people) are common come from? because of strong negative associations with Black people in American society. Black people are often portrayed negatively in and mass media, and there is a long history of racial discrimination in the United States.

However, even if our attitudes come from our culture, they are still in our own minds and can influence our behavior if we are not vigilant to not let them.

What can I do about an implicit bias?

Ensuring that implicit biases don’t leak out in the first place: To do that, you can “blind” yourself from learning a person’s gender, race, etc. when you’re making a decision about them (e.g. having their name removed from the top of a resume). If you only evaluate a person on the things that matter for a decision, then you can’t be swayed by demographic factors.

What can I do about an implicit bias?

Compensate for implicit preferences: Forexample,ifyou haveanimplicit preference for young people, you can try to be friendlier toward elderly people.

42 What can I do about an implicit bias?

Consider what gets into the mind in the first place: This might mean avoiding television programs, movies and media that portray women and minority group members in negative or stereotypical ways.
