三个实验验证了一个假设，即特定背景所隐含的社会角色可以减弱或逆转在受控和自动评估措施中获得的典型种族偏见模式。研究1评估了在与运动员或学生角色相关的背景下对黑人和亚洲人面孔的评价。研究2比较了黑人和白人面孔在3种角色相关情境下（囚犯、做礼拜者和工厂工人）的评价。研究3在相同的监狱环境中操纵角色线索（律师或囚犯）。所有3项研究都在控制和自动评估的测量中产生了种族偏见作为隐含作用的函数的显著逆转。这些结果支持这样的解释，即基于种族与角色相互作用的差异评估提供了一种方式，即环境可以调节可控的和自动的种族偏见。
Three experiments tested the hypothesis that the social roles implied by specific contexts can attenuate or reverse the typical pattern of racial bias obtained on both controlled and automatic evaluation measures. Study 1 assessed evaluations of Black and Asian faces in contexts related to athlete or student roles. Study 2 compared evaluations of Black and White faces in 3 role-related contexts (prisoner, churchgoer, and factory worker). Study 3 manipulated role cues (lawyer or prisoner) within the same prison context. All 3 studies produced significant reversals of racial bias as a function of implied role on measures of both controlled and automatic evaluation. These results support the interpretation that differential evaluations based on Race X Role interactions provide one way that context can moderate both controlled and automatic racial bias.
