Groups 2
Group 2 names the comparator: control.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Weight Discrimination Experience | Participants in the experimental condition will:~1. Learn that their group mates are biased against overweight people (i.e., they have negative attitudes toward people with higher body weight),~2. Receive feedback about their personal attributes that is consistent with negative weight-based stereotypes (e.g., lacking self-discipline), and~3. Not be selected as a partner for the remaining lab tasks (i.e., this experience may prompt feelings of social exclusion).~Weight discrimination experience: In the experimental condition, participants will learn that their group members are biased against overweight people but not elderly or racial/ethnic minority individuals, as indicated by the getting to know you summary ratings handout. Participants will also receive negative feedback about their personal attributes by being labeled with negative weight-based stereotypes. Although some ratings will be positive (e.g., they will receive high ratings on being friendly and kind), participants will be rated poorly on attributes viewed as necessary to develop a strong marketing campaign (i.e., motivation to work hard, possessing self-discipline to persist at the task, and competence). After (ostensibly) assembling the group's preferences, the experimenter will inform participants that no one selected them to be their partner, thus they will perform the next few tasks alone. This manipulation has been shown to prompt feelings of social exclusion. | 0 | 136 | EG000 | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Group 2 | Control Experience | Participants in the control condition will:~1. Learn that their group mates are very accepting of overweight people (i.e., they have positive attitudes toward people with higher body weight),~2. Receive positive feedback about their personal attributes that is not consistent with negative weight-based stereotypes, and~3. Will be told that one of their group members had to leave early for an emergency so the pairs cannot be assembled as usual (i.e., this experience should not prompt feelings of social exclusion).~Control experience: In the control condition, participants will learn that their group members have positive attitudes toward people with higher body weight, as well as elderly and racial/ethnic minority individuals, as indicated by the getting to know you summary ratings handout. Participants will also receive positive feedback about their personal attributes, as indicated by the summary ratings averaged across the three members. Finally, participants in the control condition will be told that one of their group members had to leave unexpectedly for a family emergency, so pairs cannot be assembled as usual, thus they will perform the next few tasks alone. This manipulation should not prompt feelings of social exclusion. | 0 | 135 | EG001 | ClinicalTrials.gov |
