我们研究了刻板印象威胁对血压反应的影响。与欧洲裔美国人和没有刻板印象威胁的非洲裔美国人相比，刻板印象威胁下的非洲裔美国人在学业测试中的平均动脉血压升高幅度更大，在高难度测试中的表现更差。我们讨论了这些发现对了解非裔美国人高血压发病率的意义。
We examined the effect of stereotype threat on blood pressure reactivity. Compared with European Americans, and African Americans under little or no stereotype threat, African Americans under stereotype threat exhibited larger increases in mean arterial blood pressure during an academic test, and performed more poorly on difficult test items. We discuss the significance of these findings for understanding the incidence of hypertension among African Americans.
