Flashcards

Kelley's Covariation Principle

This principle explains how we attribute causes to behaviors by considering three factors: consensus (how others act), distinctiveness (how the person acts in other situations), and consistency (how the person acts across time).

Sternberg's Love Triangle

This theory proposes that different types of love are composed of varying combinations of three components: intimacy (closeness and connection), passion (intense feelings and desire), and commitment (decision to love and maintain the relationship).

Discrimination vs. Prejudice

Discrimination is treating people unfairly based on their group membership. Prejudice is a negative attitude towards a group, often involving stereotypes and negative emotions.

Subtyping

This is a way to maintain stereotypes despite contradictory information. We create separate categories for individuals who don't fit the stereotype, allowing us to maintain the general stereotype.
