TL;DR: The authors tested 9 interventions (8 real and 1 sham) to reduce implicit racial preferences over time and found that none were effective after a delay of several hours to several days, and also found that these interventions did not change explicit racial preferences and were not reliably moderated by motivations to respond without prejudice.

TL;DR: It is found that short-term malleability in implicit preferences does not necessarily lead to long-term change, raising new questions about the flexibility and stability of implicit preferences.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of female role models on women's leadership aspirations and self-perceptions after a leadership task were assessed across two laboratory studies, and the authors tested the prediction that upward social comparisons to high-level female leaders will have a relatively detrimental impact on women’s self perception and leadership aspirations compared to male and less elite female leaders.

TL;DR: This article investigated the impact of death-related thoughts on preferences for male and female leaders and tested alternative predictions derived from terror management theory: the stereotype bias effect was predicted to result in a global preference for male leaders and a preference for agentic leaders, whereas the ingroup bias effect resulted in women favoring female leaders, and men preferring male leaders.

TL;DR: This paper explored how media images depicting counter-stereotypical roles for women, compared to those that depict stereotypical roles for men, affect women's gender role beliefs and responses to a leadership situation.
