Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Philosophy - General Essays, Eras, grade: A, language: English, abstract: Stereotypes can be defined as the generalization about a group of people. Under this generalization, there is a defined set of traits that is associated with certain groups. The classifications can be either negative or positive. For example, various nationalities are stereotyped as friendly or unfriendly. The principal purpose of stereotype is to help one interact with each other. Each of the calcification in this contact tends to be having an association and script. It is the association and the script that can be used to interpret what different groups are saying. As such it is used in deciding what is right or bad and also helps in making a response choice. The only challenge that comes with a stereotype is the aspect of the implicit bias. Implicit bias refers to a relatively unconscious and some of the fairly automatic features of prejudiced judgment and social behaviors. As much as psychologist over the time have been dwelling on discussing the implicit attitudes towards self-esteem, food alcohol, consumer product and political values, the most striking and one of the well-known issue has been on the implicit attitude towards some of the members of the socially stigmatized groups like the African America, LGBTQ community and women. The physiological research on the implicit bias and stereotype of mind can be said to be present, however, host of the metaphysical, ethical questions and epistemological about how these implicit bias and stenotypes could be pressing.
