The study found that among African American adolescents and emerging adults, characters with stereotypical behavior were more likely to be perceived as having stereotypical traits, and judgments of academic potential were influenced by the interaction of behavior and phenotype.
The present study based on social identity theory and phenotypic bias models examined how variations in phenotype and behavior related to in-group belonging and stereotyping for African American adolescents and emerging adults. Although ethnic-racial typicality is often considered as either phenotypic or behavioral, little research has investigated the interaction of these two dimensions. Forty African American high school students (M-age = 15.38, SD = 0.81) and 42 college students (M-age = 19.55, SD = 1.35) watched animated clips of African American male characters varying in typicality. Participants rated the character's stereotypical traits, academic potential, and likelihood of intraracial group belonging. Results showed that characters who were stereotypical in behavior were rated with higher averages of stereotypical traits, lower averages of counterstereotypical traits, and more likely to belong than were characters with less-typical behaviors. There was also an interaction between a character's behavior and phenotype for judgments of academic potential among high school students, but not college students. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings for African American youth are discussed.
