个人客观性可能会引发一种“我认为它是真的”的心态,在这种心态中,人们认为自己的信仰和内省是正确的,因此值得采取行动。在目前的研究中,启动一种个人客观意识会增加性别歧视,特别是在支持刻板印象信念或具有通过内隐启动在认知上可获得的刻板印象思想的决策者中。讨论了组织背景下的歧视和态度-行为一致性理论的含义。(C) 2007爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
A sense of personal objectivity may prompt an "I think it, therefore it's true" mindset, in which people assume that their own beliefs and introspections are, by definition, valid and therefore worthy of being acted on. In the present studies, priming a sense of personal objectivity increased gender discrimination, particularly among decision-makers who endorsed stereotypic beliefs or who had stereotypic thoughts made cognitively accessible through implicit priming. Implications for discrimination in organizational contexts, and for theories of attitude-behavior consistency, are discussed. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
