Chapter . Prejudice and Patriotism II

Video Summary

In Prejudice and Patriotism I, you saw a bigoted bakery employee refusing to serve a Muslim woman, and you also saw several people who were either indifferent to the discrimination, or who actively endorsed it. In Prejudice and Patriotism II, however, we begin to see some people coming to the defense of the strudel-seeking Muslim woman.

Social psychologist Jack Dovidio describes how justice binds us together, and threats to this sense of justice and fairness undermine this system. This explains why some become outraged by discriminatory behavior.

Correct!
Sorry, your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is illusory correlations.
Social role theory would say that, if we see someone in a role, we make stereotyped inferences about that individual from that role. The Muslim woman in the shop, though, is not in the role of a terrorist—she’s in the role of a strudel-hungry customer.
The kernel-of-truth hypothesis would say that there is a real, but perhaps small, relationship between being a terrorist and being Muslim. The video provides no information on what percentage of the Muslim population are terrorists, so we don’t know if it’s any higher than any other group’s likelihood of being terrorists.
The stereotype content model looks for information people have on competence and warmth—neither of which are mentioned or implied in the video.

Correct!
Sorry, your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is ingroup bias.
Nothing in the employee’s comments indicates he doesn’t think the Muslim woman has uniquely human qualities, like language use.
Nothing in the employee’s comments paints the Muslim woman as more animal than human.
The idea of implicit prejudice is that one is not consciously aware of one’s prejudice; the employee is pretty clearly aware of his negative attitudes in the video.

Correct!
Sorry, your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is justice.
People’s social identities are tied to their group membership. The naïve Muslim customer from later in the video might have felt her social identity being impacted, but not everyone else. For them, injustice was the concern.
Ambivalent racism deals with people’s conflicting beliefs of egalitarianism and individualism, and Dovidio is not really interested in that dynamic here.
The prejudice is a problem for people, but why do they consider it a problem? Because, Dovidio believes, they see it as unjust.

Correct!
Sorry, your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is the justification suppression model.
This theory claims that we use the roles people are in to attribute stereotyped characteristics to them. The employee may be seeing the Muslim role as carrying with it stereotypes of terrorism, but this ignores the historical information in the question that makes another answer more likely.
Dehumanized others are seen more as animals that people, and while the employee is harsh, he never goes that far in his characterization of the Muslim customer.
In this theory, the status quo is upheld by stereotypes. The question doesn’t deal with any status quo issues.
