Does Suppressing the Thought of a Self-Relevant Stigma Affect Interpersonal Interaction?
In the current study, we examined the effects of women’s suppressing negative gender stereotypes while interacting with a male confederate. Compared with control participants, those who suppressed negative thoughts about women’s ability experienced less self-confidence, lower self-esteem, and were more nonverbally submissive during the interaction, particularly if they were high in stigma consciousness (Pinel, 1999). These findings illustrate the negative intra- and interpersonal consequences of stigma
suppression.
