“…Broadly speaking, our results extend the literature on stereotype change and show that challenging stereotypes through incongruent or multiple category combinations affect not only judgments on (Hutter & Crisp, 2005), perceived variability of group targets (Garcia-Marques & Mackie, 1999) and their generalization (Paolini, Crisp, & McIntyre, 2009) but also the linguistic terms used to describe them. These are the main vehicles of stereotypes and prejudices transmission (Maass et al, 1989).…”

The present research addressed for the first time conditions under which linguistic out-group derogation can be hindered by increasing the qualitative and quantitative complexity of out-group members categorization. An analysis was made of the spontaneous language used to describe counterstereotypic versus stereotypic portrayals of Romanians (Study 1) and multiple versus single categorizations of immigrants (Study 2). Results showed that counterstereotypic and multiple categorization of highly discriminated targets decreased the level of abstraction of negative terms used, thus reducing out-group linguistic derogation. Furthermore, multiple versus single categorization effect on linguistic derogation toward immigrants was mediated by individuation of immigrants and moderated by intergroup contact. The implications of the sociocognitive interventions used and intergroup contact in hindering linguistic out-group derogation are discussed.

“…The individuals are likely to engage in a wide assessment of their behaviors and judgments. Paolini et al (2009) found that when individuals were notified that they would be held accountable for their decisions regarding stereotype change and generalizations, both information processing and judgment vigilance increased. In this regard, Lerner and Tetlock (1999) proposed that self-critical and effortful thinking is most likely to be activated when decision-makers learn prior to forming any opinions that they will be accountable to an audience (a) whose views are unknown, (b) who are interested in accuracy, (c) who are interested in processes rather than specific outcomes, (d) who are reasonably well informed, and (e) who have a legitimate reason for inquiring into the reasons behind participants' judgments.…”

Accountability and moral competence are two factors that may have a positive effect on ethical leadership in organizations. This study utilized a survey methodology to investigate the relationship among accountability, moral competence, and ethical leadership in a sample of 103 leaders from a variety of industries and different countries. Accountability was found to be a significant positive predictor of ethical leadership. Moral competence was also found to moderate this relationship such that increases in moral competence enhanced the positive effects of accountability on ethical leadership. The results of the study suggest that organizations can increase ethical leadership throughout the company via accountability (especially selfaccountability) and moral competence by training their leaders to use self-monitoring behaviors and increasing moral education.

“…First, contemporary expressions of intergroup bias are frequently covert (Dovidio & Gaertner, ), and measures of implicit evaluative associations nicely capture these subtle, often unintentional intergroup reactions and predict meaningful downstream behaviors (Cameron, Brown‐Iannuzzi, & Payne, ; Greenwald, Poehlman, Uhlmann, & Banaji, ). Additionally, although empirical attention has been devoted to understanding member‐to‐group generalization of explicit attitudes and beliefs (e.g., Deegan, Hehman, Gaertner, & Dovidio, ; Paolini, Crisp, & McIntyre, ) and member‐to‐member generalization of implicit attitudes (e.g., Gawronski & Quinn, ; Ranganath & Nosek, ), little work has examined member‐to‐group generalization of implicit attitudes.…”

Perspective taking and member‐to‐group generalization of implicit racial attitudes: The role of target prototypicality

Actively considering an individual outgroup member's thoughts, feelings, and other subjective experiences —perspective taking— can improve attitudes toward that person's group. Here, we tested whether such member‐to‐group generalization of implicit racial attitudes is more likely when perspective‐taking targets are viewed as prototypical of their racial group. Results supported a gendered‐race‐prototype hypothesis: The positive effect of perspective taking on implicit attitudes toward Black people and Asian people, respectively, was stronger when the perspective‐taking target was a Black man or Asian woman (gender–race prototypical) versus a Black woman or Asian man (gender–race nonprototypical). These findings identify a boundary condition under which perspective taking may not improve intergroup attitudes and add to a growing literature on social cognition at the intersection of multiple social categories.
