Getting the message: Media images and stereotypes and their effect on Asian Americans.

ultural Diversity and Mental Health, Vol 4(3), 1998, 185-202

Mass media sources such as television and movies arguably offer up little in the way of positive Asian/Asian American images or role models. This article contends that the media do not often portray the diversity that is inherent within the Asian American culture and that such a paucity of Asian images may greatly affect perceptions Asian Americans may hold both of their own racial group and of the larger society. This article examines both media images of Asians and Asian Americans and autobiographical information from Asian American literature to illustrate the potentially detrimental effects of being a person of color in a society that emphasizes a monoracial standard of beauty. Information gleaned from first-hand accounts from Asian Americans often points to the media as a potent source of information as to how attractiveness is defined and measured. This article concludes with a discussion of some brief case examples and ethical imperatives for mental health workers in terms of both self-awareness and education as well as considerations for culturally sensitive therapy.

Effects of news stereotypes on the perception of facial threat.
Arendt, Florian; Steindl, Nina; Vitouch, Peter
Journal of Media Psychology: Theories, Methods, and Applications, Vol 27(2), 2015, 78-86

The human face is central to social interactions and therefore of primary importance in social perception. Two recent discoveries have contributed to a more thorough understanding of the role of news stereotypes in the perception of facial threat: First, social-cognition research has revealed that automatically activated stereotypes influence the perception of facial threat. Individuals holding hostile stereotypes toward dark-skinned outgroup members perceive ambiguous dark-skinned faces as more hostile than similar light-skinned faces. Second, media-stereotyping research has found that the media can influence individuals’ automatically activated stereotypes. Combining these two findings, it was hypothesized that reading tabloid articles about crimes committed by dark-skinned offenders would increase the perceived facial threat of meeting dark-skinned strangers in a subsequent situation. This hypothesis was tested in a laboratory experiment. Participants read crime articles where cues indicating (dark) skin color were mentioned or not. The results showed that reading about dark-skinned criminals increases the perceived facial threat of dark-skinned strangers compared with light-skinned strangers.


Social influence, sex differences, and judgments of beauty: Putting the interpersonal back in interpersonal attraction.
Graziano, William G.; Jensen-Campbell, Lauri A.; Shebilske, Laura J.; Lundgren, Sharon R.
Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Vol 65(3), Sep 1993, 522-531

Four studies (N = 711) probed processes that underlie sex differences in attraction. In Study 1, women reported expertise at judging men's physical attractiveness, and this expertise was acknowledged by men. In Study 2, women evaluated physical attractiveness after seeing ratings supposedly made by same-sex peers. Women were influenced by other women's ratings, especially negative ratings. Study 3 indicated that women were influenced by female peers in rating both male and female stimulus persons. There was no evidence that men were influenced by peers. In Study 4, Ss evaluated physically attractive persons of the other sex after reading a detailed description. Women were more influenced by peer evaluations than were men. Results were discussed in terms of sex differences and social influence processes in interpersonal attraction.


there are a few academic papers I could find, with plenty more on the internet
