Social stereotype as a learning tool
Original language description
The goal of the study was to investigate effects of activation of social stereotypes associated with certain level of intelligence on a mental task. In Experiment 1, undergraduate students were asked to complete a mid-term test. Prior to knowledge testing they were primed either with stereotypes of a professor or a charwoman. The results showed that students who were primed with the stereotype of a university teacher performed slightly better. In Experiment 2, prior the mental task (learning of foreignwords), the subjects were primed by stereotypes of classical or techno music listeners. The results indicated that activation of the stereotype of a classical music listener led to better results in learning foreign words than activation of the stereotype of a techno music fan.
