Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This study assesses the prevalence of health outgroup homogeneity effects in college students. This study used a quasi-experimental survey design (N = 485) to examine the relationship between three within-subject factors type of disease (AIDS vs. cancer), sexual orientation (homosexual vs. heterosexual), target person sex (male vs. female) and one between-subject factor, respondent sex (male vs. female). Outgroup homogeneity effects were examined on four dimensions: appearance, interests, occupation, and personality. Sexual orientation (heterosexual), topic of the disease (cancer), respondent sex (female) and target person sex (female) emerged as stronger predictors of outgroup homogeneity effects. That is, female respondents perceived more homogeneity in female target persons, heterosexuals and people with cancer. In addition, interaction effects were found for respondent sex and target person sexual orientation such that female respondents perceived heterosexuals as being more similar on all four dimensions of outgroup homogeneity effect. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
