Abstract

Abstract Discrimination against the unemployed operates through attributions, is unjustifiable, and is nearly instantaneous. Experimental Studies 1 and 2 find that unemployment discrimination operates through attributions, as emphasizing an uncontrollable and external cause for unemployment onset alleviates discrimination. Experimental Studies 3 and 4 find that unemployment stigma is unjustifiable on productivity grounds, as formerly unemployed workers are judged negatively once on the job, even when we control for on-the-job performance. Across the studies, unemployed workers are perceived not only as less competent but also as less warm. Study 5 is a field study in which fictionalized resumes are sent to real employers. Controlling for qualifications, it finds that discrimination against the unemployed occurs nearly instantaneously to becoming unemployed.

心理污名化在失业歧视中的作用
对失业者的歧视是通过归因产生的,是不合理的,而且几乎是瞬间的。实验研究1和2发现,失业歧视是通过归因来运作的,因为强调失业的不可控和外部原因可以减轻歧视。实验研究3和4发现,基于生产力的理由,失业污名化是不合理的,因为以前失业的工人一旦工作就会受到负面评价,即使我们控制了在职表现。在这些研究中,失业工人不仅被认为能力较差,而且也不那么热情。研究5是一项实地研究,将虚构的简历发送给真实的雇主。在资格控制方面,它发现对失业者的歧视几乎在失业后立即发生。

期刊介绍: Basic and Applied Social Psychology (BASP) emphasizes the publication of outstanding research articles, but also considers literature reviews, criticism, and methodological or theoretical statements spanning the entire range of social psychological issues. The journal will publish basic work in areas of social psychology that can be applied to societal problems, as well as direct application of social psychology to such problems. The journal provides a venue for a broad range of specialty areas, including research on legal and political issues, environmental influences on behavior, organizations, aging, medical and health-related outcomes, sexuality, education and learning, the effects of mass media, gender issues, and population problems.
