Abstract
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM; Fiske et al., 2002) is utilized to make sense of how individuals and groups assess others. The SCM consist of to two basic dimensions: perceived warmth and competence. Little research has been conducted to analyze how people perceive individuals in relation to their professional roles. To better understand potential stereotypes of professions, participants were asked to rate general professions on the two dimensions of warmth and competence. Results from the study supported some patterns found in previous research by Brambillia et al. (2010) in regards to two professions and indicated similarities in newly studied professions.
