At one time, intergroup attitudes and beliefs were thought to be fairly stable across time and context, but empirical displays of malleability are now widespread. In recent years, new theoretical perspectives have delineated important processes underlying variability in stereotypes and attitudes, and a growing body of empirical evidence has demonstrated that intergroup stereotypes and attitudes may be considerably more flexible than originally assumed (see Sczesny, Bosak, Diekman, & Twenge, 2007).Empirical evidence for malleability in intergroup stereotypes and attitudes is now plentiful. For example, perceivers’ stereotypical beliefs and attitudes vary across social roles (eg, Barden, Maddux, Petty, & Brewer, 2004; Bosak, Sczesny, & Eagly, 2007), social norms (eg, Crandall, Eshleman, & O’Brien, 2002), culture (eg, Sczesny, Bosak, Neff, & Schyns, 2005), and temporal context (eg, Diekman & Eagly, 2000). Moreover, an accumulating body of evidence documents malleability in implicit associations (eg, Blair, 2002). Specifically, implicit associations are sensitive to a wide range of social and contextual influences including priming effects (eg, Blair, Ma, & Lenton, 2001; Dasgupta & Asgari, 2004; Karpinski & Hilton, 2001), explicit instructions (eg, Kim, 2003; Lowery, Hardin, & Sinclair, 2001), and real-world experiences such as diversity education (eg, Rudman, Ashmore, & Gary, 2001).
