People who have physical disabilities or who have difficulty moving easily often experience discrimination in everyday life. This project focuses on the dehumanizing treatment of such people. The research examines how it is that we make judgments about others' worth based on their bodies or on their physical mobility. It also considers why it is that we sometimes see those lacking physical abilities as also lacking mental abilities. The long-term goal is to find ways to reduce the dehumanization of people who have mobility challenges. A new model of dehumanization proposes that we often fail to carefully consider others' minds, especially when those others do not appear able to influence our own lives. According to this model, people who lack physical mobility (such as the elderly, obese individuals, physically disabled persons) often fail to claim our attention. By failing to think about them, we then fail to consider their minds as being sophisticated and capable. A deeper understanding of this process will support the development of interventions aimed at reducing the discrimination so often experienced by those who have physical disabilities.Sixteen behavioral experiments examine the link between how others are perceived and the triggering of dehumanizing responses. It is expected that perceiving others as personally relevant will trigger the perception of more sophisticated minds, and that believing a target is not personally relevant will trigger dehumanizing responses. The first line of work will establish that simple cues to self-relevance (such as an impending interaction or direct eye gaze) will trigger the perception that others' have more sophisticated minds. The second and third lines of work will extend these findings to physical mobility cues, demonstrating that individuals who have lesser physical mobility will be seen as less capable of acting on the self, and therefore will be ascribed less sophisticated physical capacities. This project will also extend to interventions to reduce the dehumanization of those with physical disabilities. It is expected that individuals who are seen as more physically capable (because of effective prostheses) will no longer be dehumanized. Taken together, this research bridges the interface between person perception, the perception of others' bodies, and mind perception. It also addresses questions about the causes of dehumanizing stigma and how such stigma may be reduced.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

有身体残疾或难以移动的人经常在日常生活中经历歧视。 该项目着重于对此类人的非人性化待遇。 该研究探讨了我们如何根据自己的身体或他们的身体活动来对他人做出判断。 它还认为为什么我们有时会看到那些缺乏身体能力的人也缺乏精神能力。 长期的目标是找到减少行动不便挑战的人的非人性化的方法。 一种新的非人性化模型提出，我们通常无法仔细考虑他人的思想，尤其是当其他人似乎无法影响我们自己的生活时。 根据该模型，缺乏身体机动性的人（例如老年人，肥胖的人，身体残疾的人）通常无法引起我们的注意。通过未能考虑它们，我们就没有将他们的思想视为精致和有能力。对这一过程的更深入的了解将支持旨在减少身体残障人经常经历的歧视的干预措施的发展。十六个行为实验研究了其他人的感知方式与触发非人性反应的联系。 可以预期，将他人视为个人相关的人会触发更复杂的思想的看法，并且认为目标与个人无关，将触发非人性的回应。第一道工作将确定自我相关的简单提示（例如即将发生的互动或直接眼光）将触发人们对别人的思想更加复杂的看法。 第二和第三行的工作将把这些发现扩展到身体移动性线索，这表明那些身体移动性较小的人将被视为对自我的作用较低，因此将被归因于较少成熟的身体能力。 该项目还将扩展到干预措施，以减少身体残障人士的非人性化。 预计那些被视为身体有能力的人（由于有效的假体）将不再人性化。 综上所述，这项研究桥接了人的感知，对他人身体的看法和思想感知之间的界面。它还解决了有关非人性污名的原因以及如何减少这种污名的问题。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来提供支持。
