回顾了Katz/Braly的研究路线，以及改进刻板印象测量的努力。使用形容词生成技术(AGT)考察了非裔美国人和欧洲裔美国人的相互刻板印象和群体偏见效应。结果表明，每组学生对他人的概念不同于对本组的概念。这两个群体都认为欧洲裔美国人倾向于创造性、受过教育、聪明、富有和贪婪，但非洲裔美国人增加了腐败和偏见，而欧洲裔美国人增加了懒惰。两个群体都认为非裔美国人倾向于腐败、风趣、友好、独立和贫穷。虽然大多数非裔美国人认为他们自己的群体聪明而强大，但大多数欧洲裔美国人将运动、幽默和吵闹归功于非裔美国人。根据分配给生成的单词的好评度和焦虑值，两组都证实了组内偏见效应。然而，非裔美国人在FAV指标上表现出更强的偏见效应。只有非裔美国人支持这样的期望，即群体中的成员将有更多适用于他们自己群体的概念。也有证据表明，无权者比强者更了解有权势的人。讨论了刻板印象内容、群体内偏见效应、群体间焦虑以及自身群体认同感的强弱对刻板印象内容研究的启示。
The Katz/Braly line of research is reviewed, along with efforts to improve stereotype measurement. Mutual stereotyping by African Americans and European Americans and in-group bias effects were examined employing the Adjective Generation Technique (AGT). Results showed that each group's conception of the other differed from its own-group conception. Both groups saw European Americans as tending to be inventive, educated, smart, rich, and greedy, but African Americans added corrupt and prejudiced, while European Americans added lazy. African Americans were seen by both groups as tending to be corrupt, funny, friendly, independent, and poor. While mostly African Americans saw their own group as smart and strong, mostly European Americans attributed athletic, humorous, and loud to African Americans. The in-group bias effect was confirmed for both groups in terms of FAVorability and ANXiety values assigned to generated words. However, African Americans showed a stronger bias effect on the FAV measure. The expectation that in-group members would have more constructs applicable to their own group than to the other group was supported only for African Americans. There was also evidence that the powerless know the powerful more than the other way around. Implications for the study of stereotype content, the in-group bias effect, intergroup anxiety, and strength of own group identity are discussed.
