Explore the cognitive, affective, and behavioral components of prejudice

Explore the cognitive, affective, and behavioral components of prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination in intergroup contexts. Discuss theories of prejudice, such as social categorization theory and realistic conflict theory, in understanding the origins and maintenance of intergroup bias. Analyze research findings on the impact of implicit bias, stereotype threat, and microaggressions on social judgments and behavior, as well as interventions for reducing prejudice and promoting positive intergroup relations, including intergroup contact, perspective-taking, and diversity training programs.
