Analyzing Stereotypes
Introduction
Culture. It is a small word that carries a lot of meaning. Unfortunately, the word is often confused with other terms and misused. Most often, the terms culture, race, and ethnicity are used interchangeably. However, they are actually three distinct concepts that have some overlap. In this unit, you will learn about the differences between race, ethnicity, and culture.
In the units to come you will be reviewing different ” ‘isms.” For example, you will learn more about sexism, heterosexism, anti-Semitism, and racism. However, before delving into those specific concepts, you will review the overarching “social phenomena that fuel them” (Carter, 2015, p. 28). Your text indicates that bias, prejudice, discrimination, and stereotypes help to maintain the presence of ‘isms in our social environment. In this discussion, you will discuss stereotypes and how they impact people. You will also create a research proposal aimed at studying stereotypes.
Instructions
For this discussion:
- Review Hays’s article, “Looking Into the Clinician’s Mirror: Cultural Self-Assessment.”
- Identify two stereotypes, each related to a different cultural group within Hays’s ADDRESSING Model. For example, you may identify a gender-based stereotype and a stereotype based on a different culture.
- Compare and contrast the stereotypes and their effects on the subjects of the stereotypes.
Next, describe a design for a research study related to your specialization that investigates stereotypes. You can investigate anything related to stereotypes. For example, you may investigate the emotional impact of stereotypes for Asian Americans.
- Explain, briefly, what your research study plans to investigate and why this is important.
- What ethical standards apply to your research?
- How will you recruit participants?
- What types of research biases will want to avoid in your study?
Your initial discussion post should be at least 200 words.
