使用内隐联想测试(IAT),最近的实验表明,对美国白人有强烈且自动的积极评价,而对非洲裔美国人则有相对消极的评价。将这一发现解释为揭示亲白人态度,关键取决于对其他解释的测试,最明显的一个是感知者对代表美国人惠特的刺激更加熟悉。报道的实验表明,即使(a)使用同样不熟悉的黑人和白人的照片作为刺激,并且(b)对刺激熟悉度的差异进行统计控制,积极属性与白人的联系比美国黑人的联系更紧密。该实验表明,IAT 捕获的自动种族关联不会受到刺激熟悉度的影响,这反过来又强化了 IAT 测量自动评估关联的结论。 (C) 2000 年学术出版社。
Using the Implicit Association Test (IAT), recent experiments have demonstrated a strong and automatic positive evaluation of White Americans and a relatively negative evaluation of African Americans. Interpretations of this finding as revealing pro-White attitudes rest critically on tests of alternative interpretations, the most obvious one being perceivers' greater familiarity with stimuli representing Whit, Americans. The reported experiment demonstrated that positive attributes were more strongly associated with White than Black Americans even when (a) pictures of equally unfamiliar Black and White individuals were used as stimuli and (b) differences in stimulus familiarity were statistically controlled. This experiment indicates that automatic race associations captured by the IAT are not compromised by stimulus familiarity, which in turn strengthens the conclusion that the IAT measures automatic evaluative associations.
