Abstract

Across two studies, we examined the effect of imagined intergroup contact valence on Spanish adolescents’ stereotype content of Ecuadorian and Moroccan immigrants considering the moderator role of perceived typicality and ethnic origin on this effect. Study 1 (N = 133) showed that, only for Moroccans, when the interaction partner was perceived as highly typical, Moroccans were perceived as more moral and sociable after an imagined positive contact than after a negative one. In contrast, when the interaction partner was perceived as atypical, Moroccans were perceived as more moral and sociable after a negative imagined interaction than after a positive one. Study 2 (N = 113) broadly replicated these findings and confirmed the stronger effect of negative imagined contact on stereotypes. Only when the imagined contact was negative and the interaction partner was perceived as typical, contact altered adolescents’ perceptions and impaired Moroccans’ perceived sociability. Our findings highlight the context-dependency of the effect of contact valence and the importance of the perceived typicality for the generalization of its effects on stereotype content. En dos estudios, hemos examinado el efecto de la valencia del contacto intergrupal imaginado sobre el contenido de los estereotipos que mantienen los adolescentes españoles hacia inmigrantes ecuatorianos y marroquíes considerando el papel moderador de la tipicidad percibida y el origen étnico sobre este efecto. El Estudio 1 (N = 133) mostró que, solo para los marroquíes, cuando el compañero de interacción se percibía muy típico, los marroquíes se percibían más morales y sociables después de un contacto positivo imaginado que después de uno negativo. En contraste, cuando el compañero de interacción se percibía como atípico, los marroquíes se percibían más morales y sociables después de una interacción imaginada negativa que después de una positiva. El Estudio 2 (N = 113) reprodujo, en líneas generales, estos hallazgos, y confirmó el mayor efecto del contacto imaginado negativo sobre los estereotipos. Solo cuando el contacto imaginado era negativo y el compañero de interacción se percibía como típico, el contacto alteraba las percepciones de los adolescentes y disminuía la sociabilidad percibida de los marroquíes. Nuestros hallazgos ponen de manifiesto la dependencia del contexto del efecto de la valencia de contacto, así como la importancia de la tipicidad percibida para la generalización de sus efectos sobre el contenido de los estereotipos.

想象中与移民接触的价值对青少年刻板印象内容的影响:感知典型性的重要性
在这两项研究中,我们考虑到被感知的典型性和民族血统对这一影响的调节作用,研究了想象中的群体间接触价对厄瓜多尔和摩洛哥移民西班牙青少年刻板印象内容的影响。研究1(n=133)表明,仅对摩洛哥人来说,当互动伙伴被认为是高度典型的时候,摩洛哥人在想象中的积极接触后比消极接触后被认为更加道德和社交。相反,当互动伙伴被认为是非典型的时,摩洛哥人在消极的想象互动后被认为比在积极的想象互动后更有道德和社交能力。研究2(n=113)广泛复制了这些发现,并证实了负面想象接触对刻板印象的强烈影响。只有当想象中的接触是负面的,互动伙伴被认为是典型的,接触才会改变青少年的感知,受损的摩洛哥人的感知社交能力。我们的研究结果强调了背景-依赖于接触价的影响,以及被认为的典型性对于概括其对刻板印象内容的影响的重要性。在两项研究中,我们研究了想象中的群体间接触的瓦伦西亚对西班牙青少年对厄瓜多尔和摩洛哥移民的刻板印象内容的影响,同时考虑到感知的典型性和族裔血统对这一影响的调节作用。研究1(n=133)表明,仅对摩洛哥人来说,当互动伙伴被认为非常典型时,摩洛哥人在想象中的积极接触后比在消极接触后更道德和社交。相反,当互动伙伴被认为是非典型的时,摩洛哥人在想象中的负面互动后比在积极互动后更道德和社交。研究2(n=113)大致复制了这些发现,并证实了想象中的负面接触对刻板印象的最大影响。只有当想象的接触是负面的,互动伙伴被认为是典型的,接触才会改变青少年的看法,并降低摩洛哥人的社交能力。我们的研究结果表明,背景对接触价效应的依赖性,以及感知到的典型性对于概括其对刻板印象内容的影响的重要性。
