“…Specifically, Black and White targets in racially homogenous contexts increased participants' implicit biases; however, when participants viewed targets in racially diverse contexts, implicit bias decreased. The authors closed the article by considering that diverse contexts may be an effective means to reduce prejudice in everyday life (Soderberg & Sherman, 2013). This reflection on bias reduction aligns well with the debiasing techniques discussed in the next subsection.…”

The American Nurses Association (ANA) is responsible for the contract between society and the nursing profession, including the nursing scope and standards of practice. In 2015, an ANA workgroup produced Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice, 3rd Ed during a time of social change and an increase of culturally and ethnically diverse consumers. Subsequently, a subset of workgroup members and an invited transcultural nursing expert led to the creation of the new Standard 8: Culturally Congruent Practice, describing nursing care that is in agreement with the preferred values, beliefs, worldview, and practices of the healthcare consumer. This article records the history of the revised scope and standards and new Standard 8, the reasoning behind this standard and its impact on nursing practice, education, and research. The article also guides nurses in the application of Standard 8 to nursing practice and offers discussion about implementing culturally congruent practice through the nursing process. We also discuss cultural congruence for the graduate-prepared nurse; offer brief comments related to evaluation of culturally congruent practice using Standard 8 and future research; and conclude with a call to action.

“…Additionally, the idea of the hidden curriculum of implicit messaging arising from the segregated structure of the Christian congregations themselves is supported by some research studies that have been done. A study on implicit association found that racially homogenous contexts led to a significant increase in pro-White/anti-Black bias (Soderberg & Sherman, 2013). If the result of this study is applied to Christian congregations, the hidden curriculum with regards to structure is revealed.…”

“…Although there are some churches where becoming multiracial is not possible due to their locations, even if the area is not very racially diverse, this is still a goal for which Christian congregations can strive because multiracial congregations are usually more racially diverse than their neighborhoods (Emerson, 2006). I suggest multiracial congregations as a partial solution because one way in which implicit bias can be reduced is through interactions with other races (Soderberg & Sherman, 2013). In working to become more ethnically diverse, a church's leadership will need to address their own implicit biases as well as encouraging their parishioners to do likewise.…”

This paper uses the idea of the hidden curriculum to discuss how predominantly White Christian Organizations (PWCOs) teach about race. By introducing multicultural education into PWCOs, they have the potential to function as sites of combatting racism. Using a case study of a Christian conference that was focused on racial unity, I describe how Christian organizations can join in the efforts to create a more racially equitable society.

“…Krieglmeyer and Sherman (2012) used a multinomial model to disentangle stereotype activation from stereotype application in the stereotype misperception task. Soderberg and Sherman (2013) investigated the effects on implicit racial bias of encountering black faces in racially homogeneous versus heterogeneous contexts. They found that homogeneous contexts increased bias and heterogeneous contexts decreased bias.…”

and Keywords"Initial impressions" join personality and social psychology like no other field of study -"personality" because impressions are about personalities and perceivers' personalities affect these impressions; and "social" because social cognitive processes influence impression formation and sociocultural contexts have major effects on impressions. How people describe others is reviewed: terms used, how descriptions reveal theories about others, and importance of types and categories. Research on social cognitive processes underlying these descriptions is highlighted: automatic and controlled attention, effects of primes and their dependence on contexts, acquisition of valence, spontaneous inferences, and interplay of automatic and control processes. Accuracy of initial impressions is examined, as are what accuracy means and motivated biases and distortions. Perceiver features and relations between targets and perceivers are reviewed. Frameworks for understanding explanations, as distinct from descriptions, are detailed: attribution theory, theory of mind, and simulation theory, including synchrony and the role of embodied cognition and metaphor.Who are you? How can we describe you? A colleague once asked if I (J. S. U.) knew what it is like to be a bat, referring to Nagel's (1974) famous essay on consciousness and the mind-body problem. I replied in all honesty, "I don't even know what it's like to be me." Where should I begin? What should I leave out, so the account takes less than a lifetime and responds to the question? How accurate are my impressions, and against what standards of accuracy? Is there one truth or many? These are the kinds of questions this chapter raises by noting how social and personality psychologists approach them in theory and in research. initial impressions. We also note recent work on distributed impressions, in cyberspace and in reputations. Relations to perceiver include power and psychological distance.Finally, we note recent work on explanations of others' behaviors, focusing on three frameworks: (a) attribution theory, (b) theory of mind, and (c) simulation theory, selfreference, metaphor, embodied cognition, and synchrony. Explanations are inherently interpersonal and are usually motivated and judgmental. They often depend on implicit theories. Lay Descriptions of OthersOur descriptions of others are a function of who they are, who we are, our familiarity with them and the goals of our descriptions, previous descriptions, and our culture. Traits are particularly prominent (Park, 1986). Their semantic and perceived relations to each other have been studied for over 50 years (Uleman & Kressel, 2013).
