Overview
Traditionally dictated by the times, the definitions and theories regarding stereotypes and their ramifications have now taken on a decidedly cognitive emphasis. Representing this present trend in thought within social psychology, Stereotyping and Prejudice offers a diverse perspective on the cognitive approach, from the rather broad analysis of categorization of individuals to a discussion of intergroup relations in Israel. The contributors offer not only a resource for understanding the metamorphosis in the theories of stereotyping and prejudice, but a new look to future directions.
