    "title": "Racial Essentialism is Associated with Prejudice Towards Blacks in 5- and 6-Year-\nOld White Children",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Psychological essentialism is a cognitive bias that leads people\nto view members of a category as sharing a deep, underlying,\ninherent nature that causes them to be fundamentally similar to\none another in non-obvious ways. Although essentialist beliefs\ncan be beneficial, allowing people to view the social world as\nstable and predictable, essentialist beliefs about social\ncategories such as race or ethnicity are also thought to underlie\nthe development of stereotyping and prejudice. Whereas\nrecent studies in adults have found that racial essentialism is\nassociated with increased prejudice, the development of this\nrelationship has rarely been examined. The present research\nexamined the implications of essentialism for prejudice in a\npopulation of white five- and six-year old children in the\nUnited States, and revealed that essentialist beliefs about race\nare associated with increased implicit and explicit prejudice\ntowards members of a minority racial group.",
