3. 3Can stereotypes be used to imply judgement?

   1. AYes
   2. BNo
4. 4Katz and Brady (1933) measured the ethnic stereotypes held by a group of college undergraduates. It was replicated later by other researchers (Gilbert, 1951; Karlins, Coffman & Walters, 1969). What were they called?

   1. APrinceton Trilogy Studies
   2. BPenn State Trilogy Studies
   3. CConnecticut Symposium
5. 5Was the Katz and Brady (1933) longitudinal?

   1. AYes
   2. BNo
6. 6The stereotypes used by the college undergraduates in the Katz and Brady (1933) study were:

   1. AVery, very broad (eg, including themselves in the stereotypes)
   2. BVery, very narrow (eg, African-Americans)
7. 7Madon (et al., 2001) found the stereotypes used in the Katz and Brady (1933) study were:

   1. ARacist
   2. BOutdated
   3. CImpossible to research into
8. 8Discursive research looks at how:

   1. AOur use of language contributes to constructing prejudice
   2. BOur use of cognition contributes to constructing prejudice
   3. CThe use of ourselves is contributable to constructing prejudice
9. 9Do the findings from the Karlins, Coffman and Walters (1969), as well as the Madon (et al., 2001) studies show that stereotypes are fluid - that they change over time?

   1. AYes
   2. BNo
10. 10The changes in stereotypes relate to:

    1. AIndividual cognitions
    2. BAncestral stereotypes that are passed down
    3. CSocio-political events (eg, World War II, Vietnam war, Afghan war)

11. 11Changes in stereotypes that are influenced by socio-political events are typically about:

    1. AThe majority group (eg, the government being oppressed by its people)
    2. BThe minority group (discriminated against for no reason)
12. 12Do stereotypes operate on an individual level?

    1. AYes, they are individual and independent cognitions
    2. BNo, they are linked to socio-political events and circulate around society
13. 13Do we need ideological analysis according to Billig (1985, 2002) to analyse how stereotypes are motivated?

    1. AYes, because without context there is little to use to find out causality
    2. BNo, we don't need it
14. 14There are normative ideas, constructions or content that are widespread in cultures (eg, Muslims in the United States) that are used to promote particular power structures. These are:

    1. AIdeologies
    2. BConstructions
    3. CRepresentations
15. 15In 1881, the ideology of the Irish people by British was that:

    1. AThe Irish are backwards, uncivilised and dangerous who could harm the British empire
    2. BThe Irish are eccentric - though still a little backwards - but better than before, and we can reform relations with them again
16. 16In the present, the ideology of the Irish people by the British is that:

    1. AThey are backwards, uncivilised and dangerous, and can harm the British empire
    2. BThey are eccentric - although still a little backwards - and we can reform relations with them
17. 17Stereotype content research (Karlins, Coffman & Walters, 1969; Madon, et al., 2001) mentions broad features on context. But can stereotypes vary enormously between groups (eg, African Americans and Latin Americans)?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
18. 18What has more recent stereotype content focused on?

    1. ARacism
    2. BGender stereotypes

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
20. 20Would stereotype content between two neighbours talking across a fence be different if one of the neighbour's granddaughters - who is anti-racism - was present?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
21. 21According to Billig (1985, 2002), does the construction of prejudice differ across the same person depending on the argumentative context of which they find themselves in? For example, talking to someone who shares (eg, a family member) the same views compared to someone who might not (eg, a stranger).

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
22. 22A survey respondent who holds prejudicial constructions:

    1. AMay need to defend their views
    2. BMay not need to defend their views because it might not be necessary
23. 23Two neighbours may agree with each other, therefore:

    1. AThey would have to change their prejudicial constructions
    2. BThey would not need to change their prejudicial constructions, because there is no one to challenge them
24. 24Two neighbours may (or may not) need to defend their prejudiced talk if someone (eg, an anti-racist granddaughter).

    1. AMay need to because she is anti-racist
    2. BMay not need to, because the granddaughter might accept it as well

28. 28Billig (1985, 2002) has conducted a wealth of research into claims that are treated as obvious and universally acceptable. What are they called?

    1. ARhetorical commonplaces
    2. BRepresentational commonplaces
    3. CIndiscriminate commonplaces
29. 29An example of Billig's assertions of universally acceptable claims is politicians that say:

    1. A"National interest"
    2. B"National rhetoric"
    3. C"National divide"
30. 30Billig (1991) noted an article by National Front that said: "Dare we say it - it is they, not we, who are prejudiced?". First, it tries to:

    1. ADefend against accusations of prejudice
    2. BSupport accusations of prejudice
31. 31Billig (1991) noted an article by National Front that said: "Dare we say it - it is they, not we, who are prejudiced?". Second, it tries to:

    1. AAccuse themselves of prejudice

33. 33Has the discursive approach into stereotypes used enough interactional sequential context?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
34. 34Conversation analysis removes the interactional and sequential context in prejudice research and looks at standalone talk. According to Condor (et al., 2006), do we need sequential context?

    1. AYes, because we can then avoid making misplaced suppositions about what the prejudiced talk is actually being used to do
    2. BNo, because standalone talk is fine enough
35. 35In the Condor (et al., 2006), Mrs. A's right to carry on speaking on the topic is because:

    1. ANo one challenges her on her prejudicial talk
    2. BShe is still talking, so it's considered rude
36. 36How is the potential competitive or challenging talk from Mr. B welcomed by Mrs. A in the Condor (et al., 2006) study?

    1. AUnwelcoming, a disturbance
    2. BWelcomed, because it offers a debate
37. 37Is it easy or difficult to obtain authentic recorded examples of prejudice conversations in everyday talk?

    1. AEasy, because it's all around us
    2. BHard, because there are ethical boundaries
38. 38We can only obtain:

    1. ANuanced and unexpected findings regarding prejudiced talk in interaction from everyday talk
    2. BResearch from interviews where everyday talk will have elements of prejudice
39. 39In the Condor (et al., 2006) study, is Cliff - the researcher - still part of the study? Do participants still respond to him and his actions (including silence) in the talk?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
40. 40Do we need more data of prejudiced talk in everyday interactions?

    1. AYes, so that participants talk like they would regardless of whether research is involved
    2. BNo, because inauthentic research can be just as productive
41. 41From a cognitive social psychology perspective, does discursive research sufficiently articulate the cognitive processes and causes relate to prejudice?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
42. 42The findings from the discursive approach inform what type of psychology about research into prejudice? For example, how prejudice talk treats itself as a potentially sanctionable activity, how prejudiced talk constructs versions of the denigrated other, and how prejudiced talk is produced collaboratively).

    1. ACognitive social psychology
    2. BCognitive behavioural psychology
    3. CBiology
43. 43According to Billig (2002), is the hatred separate from the discourse?

    1. ANo, because you need to believe it and to utter sorts of particular things about others
    2. BYes, because they are separate
44. 44According to Allport (1954), intergroup conflict under the right conditions would:

    1. AHeighten intergroup hostility and lead to more negative intergroup attitudes
    2. BLessen intergroup hostility and lead to more positive intergroup attitudes
45. 45Pettigrew and Troop (2006) in their meta-analysis found that intergroup contact generally:

    1. AReduces prejudice
    2. BHeightens prejudice
46. 46Does the contact theory generalise characteristics of one group member to an entire population of the said group?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
47. 47Can the contact theory be extended broadly (eg, racial groups, ethnic groups)?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
48. 48Brown and Hewstone (2005) found intergroup contact to be the most successful when:

    1. AGroup memberships are explicit and well-known
    2. BGroup memberships are salient
49. 49Brown and Hewstone (2005) found that the potential for interpersonal relationships is high when:

    1. AGroup membership is salient
    2. BGroup membership is overt and well-known
50. 50According to Pettigrew and Troop (2006) can prejudice be reduced through vicarious experiences (eg, through friends and family) and no contact with outgroup members occurs?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo
51. 51Crisp and Turner (2009) found that "positively toned imagined contact"

    1. ADeteriorated outgroup attitudes, increased stereotyping, intergroup anxiety, and was far too complex
    2. BImproved outgroup attitudes, reduced stereotyping, as well as intergroup anxiety by being simple and effective
52. 52Are there demand characteristics in the Crisp and Turner (2009) research?

    1. AYes
    2. BNo, because it reduces implicit attitudes as well
53. 53Is there stereotype priming in the Crisp and Turner (2009) research?

    1. ANo
    2. BYes, but a control group were primed did not show similar effects
54. 54Can Fanti the gay rights activist live with Mary in Wicklow?
