日常社交互动通常以分类思维为主,基于群体的通用知识结构指导人们与他人打交道。注意到类别提示面部特征在人解释的初始阶段发挥的重要影响,当前的工作探讨了头发提示对性别分类的过程和时间动态的影响。使用标准启动范例来索引人解释的产物(即基于分类和刻板印象的知识),三个实验的结果表明:(i)仅头发提示就足以触发类别和刻板印象激活; (ii) 在人感知的早期阶段,这些线索有能力扭转传统的启动效应并产生分类分配错误(例如,女性面临主要的男性知识)。这些发现是在当代人解释的背景下考虑的。版权所有 (c) 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Everyday social interaction is often dominated by categorical thinking, with generic group-based knowledge structures guiding people's dealings with others. Noting the important influence that category-cueing facial features exert during the initial stages of person construal, the current work explored the effects of hair cues on the process and temporal dynamics of sex categorization. Using a standard priming paradigm to index the products of person construal (i.e., categorical and stereo type based knowledge), the results of three experiments revealed that: (i) hair cues alone are sufficient to trigger category and stereotype activation; and (ii) during the early stages of person perception, these cues have the capacity to reverse conventional priming effects and generate errors of categorical assignment (e.g., female faces prime male knowledge). These findings are considered in the context of contemporary accounts of person construal. Copyright (c) 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
