This paper tries to give a definition of stereotype and prejudice, taking as a base definitions from Cognitive and Social Psychology and Linguistics. The author comes to the conclusion that stereotypes and prejudice are natural mental stages, necessary for the processing of cognitive input. As a part of human cognition, prejudice must be prevented from becoming socially dangerous. It has to be diminished and modificated by personal contact between individuals of different cultures. O presente artigo procura definir a noção de estereótipo e preconceito, partindo de definições já estabelecidas no âmbito da psicologia cognitiva e social e na lingüística, para chegar à conclusão que estereótipos e preconceitos são instâncias mentais naturais, necessárias no processamento de dados cognitivo. Sendo essas instâncias cognitivas parte da mente humana, deve-se prevenir a formação de preconceitos socialmente perigosos. Estes preconceitos podem ser diminuidos e modificados através do contato pessoal entre individuos de culturas diferentes.
