Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

This research examines group type (intimacy, task, and social category) affect and its interactions with entitativity, the degree of cohesion between group members and their perceptual and cognitive bonds (Lickel et al., 2000; Campbell, 1958). Previous research suggests highly entitative groups are stereotyped differently based on their group membership compared with groups low in entitativity (Crawford et. al., 2002; Fiske, Cuddy, & Glick, 2007). We found that ratings of warmth and competence were similar for intimacy groups and social categories, but task groups were seen as more competent than warm. Overall, a group’s degree of warmth is perceived differently depending on its type.
