目前的工作调查的机制,白人对黑人的偏见可以减少(研究1),并探讨如何创建一个共同的群体内的身份可以减少偏见,促进这些过程(研究2)。在研究1中,观看了一盘描述种族歧视例子的录像带并想象受害者感受的白色参与者对黑人的偏见比那些在客观和无指导条件下的参与者减少得更多。在潜在的调解情感和认知变量的研究,减少偏见介导的感觉与感知不公正。在第二项研究中,在观看录像带之前,通过阅读恐怖主义威胁是针对所有美国人而不是仅仅针对白色美国人的干预措施来增加对共同群体身份的感知,也通过增加不公正感来减少对黑人的偏见。
The present work investigated mechanisms by which Whites' prejudice toward Blacks can be reduced (Study 1) and explored how creating a common ingroup identity can reduce prejudice by promoting these processes (Study 2). In Study 1, White participants who viewed a videotape depicting examples of racial discrimination and who imagined the victim's feelings showed greater decreases in prejudice toward Blacks than did those in the objective and no instruction conditions. Among the potential mediating affective and cognitive variables examined, reductions in prejudice were mediated primarily by feelings associated with perceived injustice. In Study 2, an intervention designed to increase perceptions of a common group identity before viewing the videotape, reading that a terrorist threat was directed at all Americans versus directed just at White Americans, also reduced prejudice toward Blacks through increases in feelings of injustice.
