Abstract in brief

  • Increasing awareness about how common stereotyping is may actually lead people to stereotype more, rather than less, because it creates a norm that makes stereotyping seem acceptable.
  • When people are told that stereotyping is widespread, they tend to express more stereotypes and are less willing to work with individuals who don’t fit those stereotypes.
  • The research suggests that simply highlighting the prevalence of stereotyping can have unintended negative effects, reinforcing stereotypes instead of reducing them.]
