“…Studies of Latino/as on prime‐time procedural dramas such as Law & Order and NYPD Blue as well as in news coverage have documented the overrepresentation of Latino/as and African Americans as criminals (see Mastro and Greenberg, Mastro et al., Mastro and Robinson, Oliver, Casas and Dixon, Eschholz et al., Mastro and Behm‐Morawitz, Britto et al.). They are shown in handcuffs and subjected to police using control talk to dehumanize them when they appear at all.…”

“…Son producto de procesos de tipo cognitivo que se desarrollan para categorizar en diferentes grupos a las personas, un proceso que conlleva la creación de ciertas creencias estereotípicas (Casas, Dixon, 2003). Éstas se caracterizan por la "simplificación o exageración", el carácter "justificador y racionalizador" de las conductas ante el exogrupo, el carácter "consensual" al ser compartidas y por su "rigidez", pues son resistentes al cambio.…”

“…Una propuesta clásica sobre su desarrollo es la preactivación del estereotipo (priming stereotypes) que determina la existencia de dos etapas automáticas y controladas (BrownGivens, Monahan, 2005;Casas, Dixon, 2003;Gorham, 2004;Mastro, 2009). En la primera se activan los estereotipos de forma inconsciente, debido a que éstos ya han sido preactivados de forma frecuente en el pasado y, por tanto, actuarán con la mera presencia de miembros de un grupo estereotipado.…”

Los estereotipos son creencias estructuradas socialmente sobre un grupo social concreto, que pueden derivar del contacto directo o indirecto con miembros de ese grupo. En este sentido, se ha planteado que los medios de comunicación pueden generar un proceso de estereotipación que conlleva la activación de estereotipos que impactan en actitudes más o menos prejuiciosas. Objetivos. El estudio busca estudiar si este proceso se produce con respecto a la población indígena mexicana, en el contexto de la Zona Metropolitana de Monterrey. Metodología. Se realizó un estudio en dos fases: en la primera se analizó mediante un análisis de contenido los estereotipos mediáticos de los indígenas en los programas de ficción de la televisión; en la segunda se evaluó mediante una encuesta la relación entre las creencias y la actitud prejuiciosa demostrada hacia la población indígena por los estudiantes de bachillerato de la zona metropolitana de Monterrey. Conclusiones. Los resultados reflejan el impacto del consumo y de los estereotipos sobre el nivel de prejuicio mantenido, pero no así un proceso de estereotipación.

“…They are a product of cognitive type processes that are carried out in order to categorize people into different groups, a process that entails the creation of certain stereotypical beliefs (Casas, Dixon, 2003). These beliefs are characterized by "simplification or exaggeration", the "justifying and rationalizing" character of behavior in relation to the outgroup, their "consensual" nature given that they are shared, and their "rigidity", since they are resistant to change.…”

“…A classic proposal on this process is the pre-activation of priming stereotypes that determine the existence of two automatic and controlled stages (Brown-Givens, Monahan, 2005;Casas, Dixon, 2003;Gorham, 2009;Mastro, 2009). In the first stage, the stereotypes are activated unconsciously, due to the fact that they have already been pre-activated frequently in the past and, therefore, will act with the mere presence of the members of a stereotyped group.…”

Introduction. Stereotypes are socially-structured beliefs about a particular social group, which can be derived from direct or indirect contact with members of that group. In this regard, it has been pointed out that media representations can generate and reinforce stereotypes that lead to the development of more or less prejudiced attitudes. Objectives. This study seeks to examine whether this process occurs with respect to the Mexican indigenous population, in the context of the metropolitan area of Monterrey. Methods. The study combined two methods: the first one consisted of the content analysis of fiction TV programmes in order to identify possible stereotypes about Mexico’s indigenous population; the second instrument was a survey applied to high school students of the metropolitan area of Monterrey in order to investigate the relationship between their beliefs and prejudiced attitudes towards indigenous people. Conclusions. Results confirmed the impact of the consumption of media stereotypes on the level of prejudice towards indigenous people, but not on the stereotyping of this sector of the population
