Abstract
(type = abstract)
This research examined the intersection of Terror Management Theory (TMT) (J. Greenberg, T. Pyszczynski, & S. Solomon, 1986; S. Solomon, J. Greenberg, & T. Pyszczynski, 1991) with stereotyping of and perceived entitativity of political groups. Three hypotheses were tested. The first was that mortality salience would engender stereotyping of conservative Republicans and liberal Democrats. The second was that mortality salience would increase the perceived entitativity of conservative Republicans and liberal Democrats. The final hypothesis was that perceived entitativity would mediate the proposed relationship between mortality salience and stereotyping. Although none of these hypotheses were supported, findings revealed that overall, liberal Democrats were stereotyped more than were conservative Republicans. Specifically, conservative Republican participants stereotyped the liberal Democrat target group significantly more than the conservative Republican target group, while moderate participants and liberal Democrat participants did not stereotype either target group significantly more than the other.
