摘要 最近的研究证明,社会知觉背后的元认知过程会导致人际偏见。例如,根据外表被归类为女同性恋者/男同性恋者的人会被不流畅地处理,这种不流畅的处理会引起负面的社会评价。尽管这种模式的结果已经在几个独立的样本中重复,但关于知觉不流畅的社会后果的证据仍然局限于少数被污名化的群体。在这里,我们在一个社会群体中测试了不流畅的影响,这个社会群体在社会知觉研究中受到的关注很少,也就是双性恋个体。我们发现:(A)接受者根据面部照片将目标归类为双性恋与非双性恋的准确率高,(B)性别不典型的面部特征与双性恋分类有关,(C)被归类为双性恋的目标和个人认为是双性恋的目标比那些没有被归类/确定为双性恋的目标被评估得更负面,以及(D)对非语言线索--特别是性别线索--的不流畅处理有助于解释反双性恋偏见。总而言之,这些发现有助于不断增长的关于性取向感知的文献,并突出了感知流畅性对于理解社会感知早期出现的各种形式的偏见的概括性。
Abstract Recent studies have documented that metacognitive processes underlying social perception contribute to interpersonal prejudice. For example, individuals categorized as lesbian/gay on the basis of their physical appearance are processed disfluently, and such disfluent processing arouses negative social evaluations. Although this pattern of results has replicated across several independent samples, evidence for the social consequences of perceptual disfluency remains limited to a handful of stigmatized groups. Here, we tested disfluency’s effects among a social group that has received scant attention in research on social perception—namely, bisexual individuals. We found that (a) perceivers achieved above-chance accuracy categorizing targets as bisexual versus not bisexual based upon facial photographs, (b) gender-atypical facial features were associated with bisexual categorizations, (c) targets who were categorized as bisexual and targets who personally identified as bisexual were evaluated more negatively than those who were not categorized/identified as bisexual, and (d) disfluent processing of nonverbal cues—especially gendered cues—helped to explain anti-bisexual prejudice. Collectively, these findings contribute to the growing literature on perceptions of sexual orientation and highlight the generalizability of perceptual fluency for understanding diverse forms of prejudice that arise in the early moments of social perception.
