aMean (M) ± standard error of the mean (SEM) of the number of Descriptors (Nonstereotypes, Positive Stereotypes, and Negative Stereotypes) and Scientists (Nonstereotypical and Stereotypical). Italic values indicate significant decrease in mean value from pre to post. Bold values indicate significant shifts using a two-tailed paired t test. For seven comparisons, Bonferroni's adjustment for significance is p < 0.00714.
