在非裔美国人(N = 70)和非裔美国少数民族(N = 80)的儿童,平均分为性别,在第一(M = 6.5岁)和第四(M = 9.6岁)年级参加混合种族公立学校在郊区的一个大的大西洋中部城市在美国进行了评估组间的态度。孩子们接受采访,以测试假设隐含的种族偏见,感知同伴之间的相似性,判断跨种族的友谊。当孩子们评价模糊的图片卡时,隐性种族偏见出现了,在某些情况下,孩子们认为白色孩子比黑人孩子更有可能是违法者。在评估潜在的跨种族友谊时没有种族偏见(它被认为是可行的);也没有任何外群体同质性效应的证据。然而,那些以种族为理由来判断同龄人相似的孩子,不太可能判断跨种族的二人组可能是朋友。研究结果表明,在少数民族儿童的判断,大多数和他们的看法之间的相似性同伴二人组影响他们的同伴互动的解释的方式。
Intergroup attitudes were assessed in African-American (N = 70) and non-African-American minority (N = 80) children, evenly divided by gender, in first (M = 6.5 years old) and fourth (M = 9.6 years old) grades attending mixed-ethnicity public schools in a suburban area of a large mid-Atlantic city in the USA. Children were interviewed to test hypotheses about implicit racial biases, perceptions of similarity between peer dyads, and judgments about cross-race friendships. Implicit racial biases emerged when children evaluated ambiguous picture cards, with children viewing a White child as more likely to be a transgressor than a Black child in certain situations. There were no racial biases when evaluating potential cross-race friendship (it was judged to be feasible); nor was there any evidence of an outgroup homogeneity effect. Children who used ethnicity as a reason for judging peers to be similar, however, were less likely to judge that the cross-race dyads could be friends. The findings indicate the ways in which minority children's judgments about the majority and their perceptions of similarity between peer dyads influence their interpretations of peer interactions.
