Outgroup Homogeneity Effect

In the movie Pretty in Pink, there are dominant groups within the school, the popular, rich kids and the poor, eccentric kids from the other side of the tracks. The story is told from the side of the poor kids, well by one girl inparticular. She projected the outgroup homogeneity effect onto the popular crowd in assuming that they were all the same – dense and snobby. But then she met a guy from the outgroup and realized that maybe they weren’t all the same after all…
