Evidence

Relatedly, the Stereotype Content Model (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick, & Xu, 2002) suggests that the stereotypes of groups are captured by two dimensions, competence and warmth, with groups perceived as competing with one’s ingroup seen as low in warmth. This perception then has implications for emotional reactions to outgroups, with low-warmth outgroups eliciting envy or contempt, depending on their perceived competence. — , Rudman, Laurie A - On the Nature of…, 1491
