Define psychological essentialism

 Illustrate why the classical view could apply to a geometrical square but not to the categorization of gender (Hint: Show how it fails to “objectively” capture either the category “man” or the category “woman”).

Then, use psychological essentialism to explain Prentice and Miller’s (2006) finding that in a female-male dyad, telling a woman (out loud) that she is an over-estimator while informing the man (out loud) that he is an under-estimator, resulted in failure to correct one’s performance the second time around.
