  5. Automatic Effects on Social Judgment(Kelley, 1950) • Warm/Cold Study • TA read description of guest lecturer before 2 different classes • 4 characteristics same in both classes • 1 class - described as WARM - other class described as COLD • Results • WARM professor rated more favorably and had more interaction after class

  6. Automatic Effects on Social Judgment(Srull & Wyer, 1979) • The classic “Donald” study • Part 1: • Scrambled sentences task; words either related to hostility (e.g., “he kicked her bit”) or not • Part 2: • Read paragraph about “Donald” and form judgments about him

  7. I ran into my old acquaintance Donald the other day, and I decided to go over and visit him, since by coincidence we took our vacations at the same time. Soon after I arrived, a salesman knocked at the door, but Donald refused to let him enter. He also told me that he was refusing to pay his rent until the landlord repaints his apartment. We talked for a while, had lunch, and then went out for a ride. We used my car, since Donald’s car had broken down that morning, and he told the garage mechanic that he would have to go somewhere else if he couldn’t fix his car that same day. We went to the park for about an hour and then stopped at a hardware store. I was sort of preoccupied, but Donald bought some gadget, and then I heard him demand his money back from the sales clerk. I couldn’t find what I was looking for, so we left and walked a few blocks to another store.

  8. Results(Srull & Wyer, 1979) • Donald rated more hostile when scrambled sentences task involved hostile words than when it didn’t • Effect seems to happen without awareness, intention, or control

  9. Becoming Famous Overnight...(Jacoby et al., 1989) • Part 1: • Pronounce 40 non-famous names (e.g., Sebastian Weisdorf) • Part 2: • Test either immediately or 24 hours later • Moderately famous names and non-famous names • Some old and some new non-famous names • “Is this person famous?”

  10. Results(Jacoby et al., 1989) • Immediate test: • Mistakes less common for old non-famous names than new ones • 24 hours later: • Mistakes MORE common for old non-famous names than new ones

  11. Automatic Effects on Behavior(Bargh, Chen, Burrows, 1996, Study 2) • Scrambled sentences task including either: • Elderly stereotype words (e.g., Florida, wrinkle, old, knits) • Neutral words (e.g., thirsty, clean, private) • Told that experiment is over • Time how long it takes subject to walk to elevator John Bargh

  12. Results(Bargh, Chen, Burrows, 1996, Study 2)

  13. Automatic Effects on Behavior(Bargh, Chen, Burrows, 1996, Study 3) • Boring task • Priming manipulation: • Black or White male faces flashed outside of awareness (~20 ms) before each trial

  14. F1 Error: Failure saving data Automatic Effects on Behavior(Bargh, Chen, Burrows, 1996, Study 3) • After 300th trial • I’m sorry, but it looks like you’ll have to do the experiment over

  15. Results(Bargh, Chen, Burrows, 1996, Study 3)

  16. Automatic Effects on Behavior(Dijksterhuis & Van Knippenberg, 1998) • Stereotypes: • Professors (Study 2) • Soccer Hooligans (Study 3) • Priming procedure: • Write about the behavior, lifestyle, appearance, and attributes of the typical X • Trivia Quiz: 60 questions • e.g., “Who painted La Guernica?” a) Dali, b) Miro, c) Picasso, d) Velasquez

  17. Results(Dijksterhuis & Van Knippenberg, 1998)

  18. Automatic Effects on Goals(Bargh et al, 2001) • Priming manipulation: • Word-find task with words related to • achievement--e.g., win, achieve, compete, attain • neutral--e.g., ranch, shampoo, river, carpet • Scrabble task: • create as many words as possible out of 8 tiles • Measure persistence at task • After 2 min. told to stop via intercom

  19. Results(Bargh et al, 2001) • Proportion who continued to work after the experimenter said, “stop” over the intercom • 57% in achievement condition • 22% in neutral condition

  20. Observation of the Invisible • The Implicit Association Test is designed to tap automatic associations between concepts and attributes (e.g., male:science female:liberal arts)

  21. Implicit Association Test

  22. Implicit Stereotypes Mahzarin Banaji "I was taken aback by my inability to make the intended association, the difficulty in making the counter-stereotypical association between, say, female and career, or male and home." “If we are aware of our biases, we can correct for them—as when driving a car that drifts to the right, we steer left to go where we intend." -- Mahzarin Banaji
