Using the methods of experimental social psychology to study cultural evolution. (2007, background): “In a similar study, Kashima (2000) had twelve chains each comprising five generations transmit a single story containing both stereotypeconsistent (SC) and stereotype-inconsistent (SI) behaviour.”
Cultural Evolution: A Review of Theory, Findings and Controversies (2015, background): “Similar effects have been found for gender and racial stereotypes (Kashima 2000; Martin et al. 2014), with stereotype-inconsistent information gradually transformed into simpler, stereotype-consistent information.”
Social Identity, Self-Categorization, and the Communication of Group Norms (2006, background): “There is also indirect evidence that over time, group discussion tends to strain out norm-inconsistent attitudes and narrow its scope to focus on norm-consistent information (e.g., Kashima, 2000).”
Values, schemas, and norms in the culture–behavior nexus: A situated dynamics framework (2015, background): “However, the change is not random variation; the content grows closer to the conventions and stereotypes in the culture (Kashima, 2000, 2014).”
Towards a unified science of cultural evolution. (2006, background): “Other studies have tracked the transmission of text along linear chains of participants (Bangerter 2000; Kashima 2000; Mesoudi & Whiten 2004; Mesoudi et al., 2006).”

Corpses, Maggots, Poodles and Rats: Emotional Selection Operating in Three Phases of Cultural Transmission of Urban Legends (2014, unknown): “As reviewed by Mesoudi and Whiten (2008), a provisional list of content biases includes a bias for stereotypeconsistent information (Bangerter, 2000; Kashima 2000), a bias for counter-intuitive concepts (Barrett and Nyhof, 2001), a bias for hierarchically organized information (Mesoudi and Whiten,…”
Student Evaluations and Gendered Expectations: What We Can't Count Can Hurt Us (2005, background): “A similar effect has been reported previously in social cognition research: stereotype-inconsistent information or behaviors are especially memorable to individual observers ( Kashima, 2000 ).”
