How We Judge Others' Personality: gender, ethnicity and questionnaires
Hosted by the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science
Women and men, blacks and whites often feel they are being judged differently for doing the same things. But their experiences are often dismissed as “overly sensitive” or “playing the race card”. This lecture will present key findings of a timely Marie Curie Project conducted at LSE.
Identical leadership films featuring different protagonists and cutting-edge interview methodologies involving first-person videos provided deep insights into how people perceive others and how they judge others on personality scales. These new findings illuminate the pathways to the emergence of implicit biases and their manifestation in standardised surveys, which are widely used in organisations and research.
Jana Uher is Senior Research Fellow, MarieCurie Fellow and member of the Athena SWAN Self-Assessment Team at LSE.
Julia Black is Interim Director of LSE and Professor of Law at LSE.
