种族不平等继续困扰着美国，但许多白人仍然怀疑种族优势的存在，限制了进步和合作。当人们面对他们的群体从特权中受益的证据时，会发生什么？我们认为这样的证据将是威胁性的，人们将要求困难来管理这种威胁。这些困难的主张允许个人否认他们个人从特权中受益，同时仍然接受群体层面的不平等存在。实验1a和1b表明，暴露于种族特权证据的白人声称比那些没有暴露于特权证据的人遭受了更多的个人生活困难。实验2表明，自我肯定逆转暴露于证据的特权困难索赔的影响，牵连困难索赔的动机性质。此外，肯定的参与者承认更多的个人特权，这是与减少不平等政策的支持增加。
Racial inequity continues to plague America, yet many Whites still doubt the existence of racial advantages, limiting progress and cooperation. What happens when people are faced with evidence that their group benefits from privilege? We suggest such evidence will be threatening and that people will claim hardships to manage this threat. These claims of hardship allow individuals to deny that theypersonallybenefit from privilege, while still accepting that group-level inequity exists. Experiments 1a and 1b show that Whites exposed to evidence of racial privilege claim to have suffered more personal life hardships than those not exposed to evidence of privilege. Experiment 2 shows that self-affirmation reverses the effect of exposure to evidence of privilege on hardship claims, implicating the motivated nature of hardship claims. Further, affirmed participants acknowledge more personal privilege, which is associated with increased support for inequity-reducing policies.
