Political Identity Priming and Own-Race Bias in Caucasian and Hispanic/Latino College Students
Own-race bias (ORB) occurs when individuals exhibit enhanced recognition memory for faces of one’s own race as opposed to faces belonging to other races. Recent research indicates that promoting the salience of shared non-racial identity can foster in-group bias of face recognition for other-race …

The role of perceptual learning in accounting for the own-race bias, the inversion effect, and the distinctiveness effect in recognition memory for faces from a developmental perspective
… the orientation in which a face is seen and the race of the face, are all factors that are known to affect subsequent recognition of faces. These three factors are known as the distinctiveness effect, the orientation effect and the own-race bias. The main objective of this study was to track the …

Expertise and the Own-Age Bias in Face Recognition
Previous research has shown that we recognise faces similar in age to ourselves better than older or younger faces (e.g. Anastasi & Rhodes, 2006). The primary aim of this thesis was to investigate this phenomenon in young adults and children to gain further insight into the underlying perceptual, …

Clarifying the role of attention on Own Gender Bias in face recognition
… at remembering individuals belonging to our own social groups than those who do not. There is a tendency to remember better faces which belong to our own race (Own Race Bias, Meissner and Brigham, 2001), our own age (Own Age Bias, Anastasi & Rhodes, 2012) and even our own gender (Own Gender …

Meta-analytic review of the contact, outgroup ethnic-nationality effect (OENE) and prejudice relationships
Identification performance is poorer for ethnic outgroup members relative to in-group members (Laurence et al., 2016). This outgroup identification deficit is referred to in this thesis as the Outgroup Ethnic Nationality Effect (OENE). Such misidentifications, while often earnest, translate into …
