虽然大多数关于控制自动偏见的研究都集中在故意抑制或纠正刻板印象的有效性上，但报告的实验测试了自动种族偏见受到共同社会影响的假设。在涉及实际的种族间接触的实验中，隐性和表达的社会影响减少了自动偏见的表达，通过两种不同的自动态度的措施进行评估。此外，自动社会调谐效果取决于参与者的种族。欧洲裔美国人（但不是亚裔美国人）在黑人实验者面前表现出的自动偏见比白色实验者少（实验2和4），尽管两组在被指示避免偏见时表现出的自动偏见都减少了（实验3）。结果是一致的共享现实理论，该理论假设，社会监管是社会认知的核心。
Although most research on the control of automatic prejudice has focused on the efficacy of deliberate attempts to suppress or correct for stereotyping, the reported experiments tested the hypothesis that automatic racial prejudice is subject to common social influence. In experiments involving actual interethnic contact, both tacit and expressed social influence reduced the expression of automatic prejudice, as assessed by two different measures of automatic attitudes. Moreover, the automatic social tuning effect depended on participant ethnicity. European Americans (but not Asian Americans) exhibited less automatic prejudice in the presence of a Black experimenter than a White experimenter (Experiments 2 and 4), although both groups exhibited reduced automatic prejudice when instructed to avoid prejudice (Experiment 3). Results are consistent with shared reality theory, which postulates that social regulation is central to social cognition.
