偏见使认知、情感和行为偏向于外族群体(Fiske,1998)。我们认为,偏见也会影响人们对外群体成员面部表情的概念化方式。人们普遍认为,人们的性格特征反映在他们的面部特征上。因此,人们对外群体特征的看法也可能反映在他们认为特定外群体的典型面孔上。因为有偏见的人比没有偏见的人对外群体的特征有更多的负面刻板印象(Fiske,1998),所以我们假设有偏见的人对外群体的面孔也有更多的负面刻板印象。为了检验这一假设,我们进行了两项涉及摩洛哥人类别的研究,摩洛哥人是荷兰一个备受污名化的移民群体。
Prejudice biases cognition, affect, and behavior toward ethnic out-groups (Fiske, 1998). We propose that prejudice also biases the way people conceptualize the facial appearance of out-group members. Popular belief holds that people’s personality traits are reflected in their facial features. Hence, people’s beliefs about the traits of out-groups may also be reflected in what they think faces typical for particular out-groups look like. Because prejudiced people have more negatively stereotyped beliefs about an out-group’s characteristics than less prejudiced people do (Fiske, 1998), we hypothesized that prejudiced people also have more negatively stereotyped mental representations of faces of people in the out-group. To test this hypothesis, we conducted two studies involving the category of Moroccans, a highly stigmatized immigrant group in The Netherlands.
