| Summary: |
Confronting Prejudice and Discrimination: The Science of Changing Minds and Behaviors focuses on confrontation as a strategy for reducing bias and discrimination. The book covers decision-making and consequences involved in confronting bias, approaches to confrontation, and intervening at the individual level to change norms and institutions. The book synthesizes the research on the psychology of prejudice to help readers understand the type of people who do and don't have a propensity to confront prejudice, the mechanisms employed, and how this knowledge can be adapted for interventions. Topics discuss values and fairness, low versus high threat confrontations, and autonomy-supportive and autonomy-restrictive confrontations. |
