Choose two of the studies listed below, which are all related to the topic of stereotyping and its effects. Compare and contrast the methodology that the researchers used in each of the cases. What were the variables that they measured, and how did they use these measurements to make conclusions about larger implications? Did the results in either of the cases surprise you, or did they fit with patterns that you have already observed? How do the different methods chosen in the two articles affect the observations and conclusions that they made? Consider an additional example of how you might research the effect of stereotypes. What variables might you measure? What social concerns or questions inform your interest in this topic? What do you think the results might be?
