Encoding flexibility revisited: evidence for enhanced encoding of stereotype-inconsistent information under cognitive load

Article Abstract:

The two key components of the encoding flexibility model of stereotyping are tested and the results demonstrated the cognitive load's processing of stereotyping-consistent and inconsistent information. The implications of the results for the role of efficiency and the interaction of motivation and ability in social cognition are discussed.

Article Abstract:

A study aimed to bridge the gap by directly examining the role of exemplar processes in judgments of compound social categories is presented. There is evidence that exemplars might be used when deduction is unavailable, and that familiarity affects the choice of strategy for understanding compounds.
