They Are What You Hear in Media Reports: The Racial Stereotypes toward Uyghurs Activated by Media

Participants sit comfortably in a dimly, soundproofed, electrically shielded room. Instructions of the experiment are presented in the document. Experimental stimulus was presented at the center of a computer controlled CRT monitor at a distance of 100 cm (viewing angle 42 ° x 44 °). All stimuli were presented and recorded using the E-Prime 0 software package (Psychology Software Tools, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA) and recorded trigger and behavioral responses. A keyboard is provided to the participants to make a selection. Participants were told that they could see a series of images, a pair of words. That work was to classify words positively or negatively as soon as possible. The experiment included 4 blocks for prime group and control group, each block contained 60 trials.

A single test is shown in Figure 1.1. In each trial, the duration of the center fixed cross presentation randomly changed between 600 and 800 ms. Face images are displayed in the center of the screen for 2,000 milliseconds against a white background. When a random blank screen lasts 600 to 800 milliseconds, Chinese adjectives are displayed. The participant presses one of the two keys to indicate the classification. A response key corresponding to positive or negative is balanced among participants. Tests were done randomly at test intervals of 1,000 milliseconds

Prior to starting official experiments, each participant conducted five tests to get used to the procedure. More importantly, before the startup group's formal experiments, there was a one-minute video show, but the control group did not. The video came from Uyghur and Han nationality television program in Urumqi on July 5, 2009. According to the report, a series of violent riots occurred in Urumqi, initially protesting Uyghurs, escalated to a violent attack. Mainly for the Han people. Several Hans passed away. Many cars and buildings are being destroyed

EEG (bandpass 0.05 - 70 Hz, sampling speed 500 Hz), front electrode position between electrode elastic cap (standard International I. 20 system) FPz and Fz is used as ground. There are two mastoid process electrodes, the left side is used as a reference. Horizontal and vertical electro-oculograms (EOG) were monitored using two pairs of electrodes, a pair of left and right of the left eye parallel to the pupil, and another pair located 10 mm from the side c. Start the experiment only when the electrode impedance is kept below 5 kΩ

This article outlines the research records of media literacy education that may interfere with media influence on racial and national stereotypes and explores the theoretical concept behind these efforts. It places the media literacy theory and practice a special focus on this field and combines qualitative research and quantitative research. Quantitative studies of the effects of media literacy training and intermediate anti-stereotypic types on racial / ethnic bias reduction are presented. In addition, we report qualitative data from ongoing studies in the early teens, including media literacy courses on stereotypes. According to the research record, this theme has been rigorously studied, but media literacy education is very promising to encourage a positive and critical stance towards media, shaping media-related knowledge, attitudes and behavior is.

Influence of media involvement on racial and national stereotypes: role of media literacy education

With regard to media coverage in the field of justice and education and research on minority youth, this article explores ways to build racial minority youth as a stereotype / ethnic appearance in racism. The resulting discriminatory treatment limits the opportunities of young people and often adversely affects them. Recently, Judge Moloye, Ontario High Court ruled that there was no reasonable excuse for the first Toronto police officers to arrest the accused when "completely eliminating" a young black drug offender. The judge wrote that officials chose the defendant and decided to search for his car "because he was a black man driving expensive Mercedes" (The Globe and Mail, 2004 September 17, A1 page). This is another case where Ontario's judge concluded that race is involved in police action against suspects.
