Abstract
The present study addresses the role of the media in the self-categorization-based process of depersonalized attraction. Results provide tentative support for the proposition that prototype embodiment impacts subsequent judgments of celebrity social attractiveness. Specifically, social attraction was most effectively predicted by ingroup prototype embodiment along the dimension of intelligence addressed in the induction, influencing liking of both ingroup (White) and outgroup (Black) target celebrities.
