Maintaining Cultural Stereotypes in the Serial Reproduction of Narratives
Abstract
Recent social cognition research showed that the individual often recalls stereotype-inconsistent (SI) information better than stereotype-consistent (SC) information. By contrast, classical studies in social psychology suggest that SC information is retained well in the collective remembering where a number of individuals are involved in the reproduction of stories. In the present experiment, individual and collective remembering were examined. A story about a man and a woman who exhibited gender-stereotype-relevant behaviors was transmitted through five-person communication chains. Although participants in earlier positions of the chains reproduced SI information more than SC information under some circumstances, SC information was retained better than SI information toward the end of the chains regardless. The stability of cultural stereotypes was discussed in terms of the tendency for collective information processing to favor the retention of information shared among individuals.

“For example, even in contexts in which participants remember stereotype-inconsistent information better than stereotype-consistent information in individual recall tasks, chains of connected participants recalling stories produce a reliable bias for stereotype-consistent information (Kashima, 2000).”

“…two experiments that the participants with a high need for closure (i.e., motivated to settle with a simple cognitive structure and therefore not motivated to mull over inconsistencies among the behavioral information) (Kruglanski & Webster, 1996) recalled SC information more than SI information.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
