PSYC 269 - Stereotyping, Prejudice, and Discrimination


Planned Offering: Fall
Credits: 3

Prerequisites: PSYC 114 and PSYC 250 (as co-req or pre-req) or instructor consent. This course examines cognitive and affective processes involved in stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination. Causes and social implications of prejudice involving various stigmatized groups (e.g., African-Americans, women, homosexuals, people of low socioeconomic status, overweight individuals) are examined. Participants focus on attitudes and behaviors of both perpetrators and targets of prejudice that likely contribute to and result from social inequality. Woodzicka.
