A screencapture of the symposium abstract. It reads: Social hierarchies shape life outcomes from employment to relationships, making it crucial to understand how people perceive and judge social status. This symposium brings together cutting-edge empirical work on how visual and semantic cues influence perceptions of socioeconomic status and social hierarchy. First, we examine how skin tone and class-linked names independently shape status judgements in India, with implications for employment decisions. Next, we explore how status-related societal stereotypes moderate the impact of clothing on competence perceptions in the U.S. and Singapore. We then investigate how marginalised groups strategically use attire to counter status-based stereotypes, revealing systematic differences in impression management across racial and gender lines. Finally, we present evidence that racial stereotyping emerges from the simultaneous activation of multiple fuzzy categories rather than discrete classification, revealing the cognitive mechanisms underlying hierarchical perception. These talks highlight understudied pathways through which status perception operates, advancing our understanding of how social hierarchies are perceived and reinforced.

Bathroom graffiti which reads:
“COCK PLAY HERE IN 2025”
“Sure, where’s everyone!”
“Sounds good boys, count me in!”

Outside of the Santa Fe station in San Diego. Palm trees and blue sky seem above the building.

The first page of the Gustave A. Feingod's 1914 paper mentioned in the post. The prints appears old; you can see that individuals type letters were paced for manual printing. It's clearly see it doesn't derive from a digital document.

DongWon OH at his workplace (NUS) is holding a small plant in a ceramic pot, smiling. DongWon is wearing a blue collared short sleeve shirt with faint floral pattern and a drawing of a Bugs Bunny illustration. The plant seems to be a sort of fern. On the ground level of the pot there are many tiny grassy non-fern plants. There is a small red mushroom decoration piece planted in the pot.
