The Effects of Time on Stereotyping: An Experimental Study

Deeaanj Hinduja, Neha Biswas, Palak Agarwal

Abstract: This research examines the relationship between exposure time and stereotypical judgments made by young adults. Using an experimental design, participants were exposed to images for different durations (0.5s, 0.7s, or 0.9s) and asked to make judgments about individuals. Results indicate that shorter exposure time led to more stereotypical judgments. However, certain stereotypes persisted across all conditions. These findings suggest the current generation is sensitive to inclusivity but targeted interventions are needed to combat persistent biases. Striving to overcome such biases and reject harmful stereotypes can lead us to a more equitable and inclusive society.

Keywords: Stereotyping, Exposure time, First impressions, Young adults, Bias & Prejudice
