Defensive projection is the process of perceiving one’s undesirable qualities in others. The present research shows how stereotypes guide and justify the projection of specific traits onto specific group members. In four studies, the authors demonstrated that people who experienced a threat to a specific dimension of their self - concept selectively activated this dimension in a stereotype and derogated stereotyped others on this dimension. They further showed that stereotyped individuals are more likely to serve as targets of projection than are non stereotyped individuals. These results demonstrate the functional role of stereotypes in guiding and constraining motivated self - enhancement.
