理论和研究都得到了改进，以便更好地了解种族和民族在司法程序中何时起作用。在目前的研究中，通过区分少数族裔青年来继续这一调查路线，以评估非裔美国人、美洲原住民和亚裔美国人对少年司法决策的影响程度，以及这些影响与彼此和白人相比如何。利用对强调刻板印象的象征性威胁理论的解释，作者预计印第安人会比非洲裔美国人受到更严厉的对待，其次是亚裔美国人，他们预计会像白人一样受到更严厉的对待。结果表明，这些预期得到了部分支持。(C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
Both theory and research have been refined to gain a better understanding of when race and ethnicity matter in justice proceedings. In the present research, this line of inquiry was continued by differentiating among minority youth to assess the extent being African American, Native American, and Asian American influenced juvenile justice decision making and how these effects compared to one another and Whites. Utilizing an interpretation of the symbolic threat thesis that emphasizes stereotyping, the authors anticipated Native Americans to be responded to more severely than African Americans, followed by Asian Americans who were anticipated to be responded to more like Whites. The results indicated partial support for these expectations. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
