Question

Research indicates that automatic, negative associations with members of various stigmatized groups appear to be more easily activated among ________ than among ________.

Answer 1

These associations tend to be more common in prejudiced individuals than those who harbor less prejudice. This is an example of how deeply-rooted and almost unshakeable the negative reactions can be to out-groups among certain individuals. The reactions are formed even before the person has time to notice they exist.
