Book Affect  Cognition and Stereotyping

Download or read book Affect Cognition and Stereotyping written by Diane M. Mackie and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a collection of chapters exploring the interface of cognitive and affective processes in stereotyping. Stereotypes and prejudice have long been topics of interest in social psychology, but early literature and research in this area focused on affect alone, while later studies focused primarily on cognitive factors associated with information processing strategies. This volume integrates the roles of both affect and cognition with regard to the formation, representation, and modification of stereotypes and the implications of these processes for the escalation or amelioration of intergroup tensions. Reviewed Development, maintenance, and change of stereotypes and prejudice Interaction of affective and cognitive processes as antecendents of stereotyping and prejudice Affect and cognitive consequences of group categorization, preception, and interaction The interaction of cognitive and affective processes in social perception Award Winning Chapter "The Esses et al", was the 1992 winner of the Otto Klineberg award given by the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues, which cited the chapter as having offered, "a substantial advance in our understanding of basic psychological processes, underlying racism, stereotyping, and prejudice."

Book Brainpower  Intelligence in American Culture from Einstein to the Egghead

Download or read book Brainpower Intelligence in American Culture from Einstein to the Egghead written by Aaron S. Lecklider and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation investigates the cultural politics of intelligence in the United States between 1919 and 1960. Represented alternately---and sometimes congruently---as a threat to democracy, a working class weapon, an imperialist tool, and a signifier of gender transgression, intelligence precipitated tremendous political controversy in these decades. The study begins with Einstein's appearance in American popular culture following the scientific confirmation of relativity, a development that signaled an opportunity for ordinary Americans to access the cultural capital necessary for negotiating the modern world. The dissertation concludes with the origination of the egghead in the 1950s, a caricature of intellectuals that embodied elitist and un-American ideals in the guise of liberalism. The emergence of representations that envisaged intelligent citizens as dangerously elite and subverting gender norms shifted the language of populism away from discussions of class and power and towards a suspicion of rogue intellect---while also enjoining Americans to conform to conservative models of identity. Yet in spite of these imperatives, marginalized Americans continued to deploy counter-representations of intelligence that supplemented and shaped their demands for equality.

Book Anti Intellectualism in American Life

Download or read book Anti Intellectualism in American Life written by Richard Hofstadter and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 1964 Pulitzer Prize in Nonfiction Anti-Intellectualism in American Life is a book which throws light on many features of the American character. Its concern is not merely to portray the scorners of intellect in American life, but to say something about what the intellectual is, and can be, as a force in a democratic society. "As Mr. Hofstadter unfolds the fascinating story, it is no crude battle of eggheads and fatheads. It is a rich, complex, shifting picture of the life of the mind in a society dominated by the ideal of practical success." —Robert Peel in the Christian Science Monitor
