Comparing person and people perception: Multiple group members do not increase stereotype priming

Abstract: A characteristic feature of daily life is encountering people in groups. Surprisingly, however, at least during the initial stages of processing, research has focused almost exclusively on the construal of single individuals. As such, it remains unclear whether person and people (i.e., group) perception yield comparable or divergent outcomes. Addressing this issue, here we explored a core social-cognitive topic — stereotype activation — by presenting both single and multiple facial primes in a sequential-primi… Show more

“…Adopting a DM analysis (Ratcliff et al, 2016), the results revealed variability in the operations underpinning task performance across the two judgmental tasks. Replicating previous research, priming was underpinned by a response bias in the ensemble-irrelevant gender-classification task (Persson et al, 2021;Tsamadi et al, 2020), an effect that was indifferent to the typicality of the groups. In the ensemble-relevant stereotype-status task, in contrast, a combination of response and stimulus processing biases underpinned the reported effects (Falbén et al, 2019;White & Poldrack, 2014).…”

“…Alternatively, adopting the current methodology, a group with four members could be contrasted with a single person. Extending Persson et al (2021), one would expect a group (vs. individual) to increase stereotype-based responding during the stereotype-status task. Finally, the reported modeling results reflect basic differences in the cognitive operations required to perform the gender-classification and stereotype-status tasks, respectively.…”

“…Groups, compared with individuals, also amplify stereotyping and prejudice; group stimuli lead to greater explicit endorsement of negative and positive stereotypes and automatic prejudicial associations (Cooley & Payne, 2017, 2019; although see Persson et al, 2021). These findings fit with evidence that humans efficiently learn group stereotypes (Hamilton et al, 2015) and models of person perception, whereby a group as a whole is seen as more representative of a social category than an individual, thus providing greater prototypical fit (Brewer, 1988; Fiske & Neuberg, 1990).…”
