“…For instance, our affiliations with different cultural groups, sports teams, or political parties can change how we perceive visual illusions (Henrich et al, 2010), football matches (Hastorf & Cantril, 1954), or inauguration crowd sizes (Schaffner & Luks, 2018). One well‐known example of intergroup perceptual bias is the other‐race effect (ORE; also called the own‐race bias or cross‐race effect), in which humans, from a variety of cultures, show improved recognition memory for faces from their own ethnic group, when compared with faces from other ethnic groups (see Meissner & Brigham, 2001; Zhou et al, 2021). While the specific mechanisms underlying the ORE are still debated (see Young et al, 2012), the visual categorisation of faces according to group membership (in this case by ethnicity) is thought to be a fundamental component (Bernstein et al, 2007; Hugenberg et al, 2010; MacLin & Malpass, 2001, 2003).…”
