Categorization as Primary-Process Cognition Racism: Implications for Counseling.

Ridley, Charles R.; Hill, Carrie L.

Counseling Psychologist, v27 n2 p245-55 Mar 1999

Presents a reaction to Thompson and Neville's (1999) article, "Racism, Mental Health, and Mental Health Practice" and proposes that the unifying theme is categorization. Extends the concept of categorization, demonstrates it as the "lowest common denominator" of racism, and discusses the implications of categorization for counseling. (GCP)
