I'm Black and I'm Proud: A Majority Ecological Context Protects Affective Aspects of Black Identity Under Stereotype Threat
When boys wear pink: A gendered color cue violation evokes risk taking
A primary way to signal gender differences starting in infancy is via a clothing color cue (pink is for girls, not boys). We examined whether a violation of this seemingly innocuous gendered prescription would lead to differential decision making regarding infants’ health and well being. In Experiment 1, participants were given an adaptation of the Asian Disease Problem (Tversky & Kahneman, 1981) describing a flu outbreak expected to affect male …
When an "Educated" Black Man Becomes Lighter in the Mind's Eye: Evidence for a Skin Tone Memory Bias
We offer novel evidence that a Black man appears lighter in the mind's eye following a counter-stereotypic prime, a phenomenon we refer to as skin tone memory bias. In Experiment 1, participants were primed subliminally with the counter-stereotypic word educated or with the stereotypic word ignorant, followed by the target stimulus of a Black man's face. A recognition memory task for the target's face and six lures (skin tone variations of ±25%, …
Hypermasculinity in the media: When men “walk into the fog” to avoid affective communication
Men’s tendency to exhibit withdrawal behaviors during affective communication has been shown to be a point of contention in romantic discord. The current study was designed to examine whether men’s desire to facilitate a discussion regarding affective communication would be affected by media portrayals of subtle versus blatant withdrawal; the latter epitomized by a hypermasculine man who opts to leave an emotionally tense situation, while it is e…
Blurring Boundaries: Bisexual Versus Lesbian and Heterosexual Women's Self-Assessed Creativity
People who self-categorize as bisexual pose a challenge to a simplistic notion of linear separability/discreteness, as indicated by beliefs that “bisexuality does not exist.” The authors thus examined whether by blurring intergroup boundaries that challenge monosexuality, bisexual women would evince higher levels of self-assessed creativity. Bisexual women's self-assessed creativity was higher than lesbian and heterosexual women's. The latter two…
