Abstract:
Research on stigma by prejudice transfer has demonstrated that women anticipate sexism when interacting with a ethnic minority individual due to a belief that prejudices stem from an underlying ideology of group inequality. The present research proposes that individuals’ lay theory of generalized prejudice (LTGP) varies across individuals and examines cardiovascular stress responses. Women who held a lay theory of generalized prejudice and were evaluated by a man with negative attitudes towards other minority groups demonstrated greater cardiovascular reactivity than women being evaluated by a neutral evaluator or who did not hold a lay theory of generalized prejudice. The present studies are the first to demonstrate cardiovascular stress responses to stigma by prejudice transfer and to highlight LTGP as a key individual difference in stigma by prejudice transfer.
