Abstract

The object of this investigation is to test two widely accepted hypotheses concerning the stereotype concept of sociology and social psychology by analysis of the American Indian as depicted in comic books, magazines, and motion pictures. From a total of sixty stories about Indians taken from a sampling of these sources a relatively complete stereotype has been abstracted.
