目前的研究考察了对包含模棱两可和公开种族主义内容的模棱两可的人际互动的情感反应。参与者包括74名非裔美国男性(年龄18-47岁)，其中一半人听到了一段带有公然种族主义内容的负面社会互动的描述(BRC)。其余参与者听到了一个类似的场景，其中没有种族主义内容(NRC)。BRC组的负性情绪得分较高，然而，在不明确(NRC)条件下报告在情景中感觉到种族主义的个体比那些在情景中没有看到种族主义的人表现出更大的负性情绪反应。在NRC组中，自我报告的过去种族歧视经历缓和了被感知到的种族主义对负面情绪的影响。作者的结论是，对种族歧视的看法，特别是在评估模棱两可的情况时，可能会对黑人男性产生深远的情感后果。
The current study examined affective responses to ambiguous interpersonal interactions containing both ambiguous and overtly racist content. Participants included 74 African American males (ages 18-47), half of whom heard a depiction of a negative social interaction with blatantly racist content (BRC). The remaining participants heard a similar scenario containing no racist content (NRC). Negative affect scores were higher for those in the BRC group, yet individuals in the ambiguous (NRC) condition who reported perceptions of racism in the scenario showed greater negative affect reactivity than those who saw no racism in the scenario. Among those in the NRC group, self-reported past experiences with racial discrimination moderated the effect of perceived racism on negative affect. The authors conclude that the perception of racial discrimination, in particular when evaluating ambiguous situations, may have profound affective consequences for Black men.
