The proposed project will explore several inter-related issues concerning the effects of global social stereotypes on judgments of individual members of stereotyped groups. In general, the project focuses on the role stereotypes play in creating different standards against which members of stereotyped groups are judged. The key argument of this research is that stereotyped expectations about group members lead the perceiver to shift or adjust his or her standards of judgment depending on the target's social category. For example, since men are generally perceived to be more assertive than women, a perceiver may have different meanings in mind when he or she characterizes a man versus a woman as being assertive. This line of reasoning suggests that stereotypes may be operative in situations even when it appears that they are not (e.g., a man and a woman might both be labeled "rather assertive," but underlying this common labeling are very different, stereotype-consistent representations). Ten studies are proposed to test and extend the "shifting standards" model. These studies are specifically designed to: 1) examine whether the "shifting standards" phenomenon may account for several recent research findings which suggest that subjects ignore their stereotypes when judging individual members of groups, 2) develop a means of measuring the standards subjects bring into judgment situations, 3) examine more specifically the processes involved in the standard shift phenomenon, 4) examine an audience's ability to accurately "decode" the subjective judgments of others, and 5) extend this reasoning to work on self- in addition to other-judgments. More general goals of this project are to increase our understanding of the basic processes involved in social judgment, and to alert both researchers and lay people alike to the extent of humans' reliance on stereotypes in everyday life.

拟议的项目将探讨几个相互关联的问题， 全球社会刻板印象对个体判断的影响 刻板印象群体的成员。 总体而言，该项目侧重于 陈规定型观念在制定不同标准方面发挥的作用， 对陈规定型群体的成员进行评判。 其中的关键论点是 研究表明，对群体成员的刻板期望导致了 感知者改变或调整他或她的判断标准， 目标的社会阶层 例如，由于男性通常 被认为比女性更自信，感知者可能有不同的 当他或她把一个男人和一个女人描绘成 很自信 这种推理表明，刻板印象可能 即使在它们看起来不起作用的情况下也是有效的（例如， 一个男人和一个女人可能都被贴上“相当自信”的标签， 在这个共同的标签下是非常不同的， 表示）。 提出了十项研究来测试和扩展 “标准转换”模式。 这些研究专门设计用于： 1)研究“标准转换”现象是否可以解释 最近的几项研究结果表明，受试者忽视了他们的 当判断群体的个体成员时，2）制定一种方法 衡量标准的主体带入判断的情况下，3） 更具体地研究标准转换中涉及的过程 现象，4）检查观众的能力，准确地“解码”的现象， 其他人的主观判断，以及5）将这种推理扩展到 自我判断与他人判断。 本项目的更多总体目标 是为了增加我们对基本过程的理解， 社会判断，并提醒研究人员和外行人一样， 人类在日常生活中对刻板印象的依赖程度。
