Document Summary
Explicit processes: correspond roughly to conscious thought, are deliberative, effortful, relatively slow and generally under our intentional control (our mind as we know it, subjective) These processes work together to regulate our bodies, continually update out perceptions, infuse emotional evaluations and layer of personal meaning to our experiences and affect how we think, make decisions and self reflect. Dual-process models: models of behaviour that account for both implicit and explicit processes. Person perception: processes by which individuals categorize and form judgments about other people (rely on implicit processes to make impressions of people) Thin slices of behaviour: rapid, implicit judgments of people based on small samples of a person"s behaviour. Demonstrates just how quickly impressions are formed and how accurate they can be. Self fulfilling prophecies and other consequences of first impressions. We guide our own social judgments; we think the way we are is how others should be thus those different than us have something wrong with them.
