Session Abstract
Based on a comprehensive review of the causes and consequences of disability prejudice, this presentation focuses on how expressions of dehumanization, contempt, pity and inspiration depend on shifting intergroup statuses. Evidence from evolutionary, ideological, and cognitive-emotional sources of ableism are summarized along with insider-reactions, disability-rights advancements, and policy recommendations.
