L 8 : Stereotyping/primacy/rececency/fundamental attribution error- diferences





What  you see is what you focus on.
Image result for perceptual errors images

differences :

a) stereo typing : perception made based on the group the person belong to  - country, race, religion, income class - and we project what we think/know of this group to the person.

b) recency - received string of information (eg at interview) but judged or conclude based on the most recent info.

c) primacy - received string of information (eg interview) but judge or conclude based on first info - eg from havard therefore good, did not based on other info - eg his character etc.

d) fundamental attribution - tendency to judge conclude based on the person's behaviour/char rather than the situation he is in.

good article/reference site and  practical application.
