Institution: Pitzer

Description: This seminar will focus on stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination from the perspective of social cognition. We will primarily focus on social groups that differ on dimensions of identity such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and religion. We will approach these issues from the perspective of experimental social psychology. That is, we will examine theories of stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination, supported by empirical findings. Finally, we will examine current events and issues through the lens of theoretical and empirical work. Satisfies: SOC, COG, DIV, SEM
