Supported in partVerified against the work's full text
Lippmann describes stereotypes as 'pictures in our heads' that let us treat people as types rather than individuals for economy of attention, but the text does not state that he coined the term.
“There is economy in this. For the attempt to see all things freshly and in detail, rather than as types and generalities, is exhausting”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
