对儿童在先前存在的不平等情况下作出的关于社会资源分配的决定进行了调查。年龄在5-6岁(n = 91)和10-11岁(n = 94)的非裔美国人和欧洲裔美国儿童判断的可接受性的医疗资源不平等的基础上,种族,分配医疗用品,评估不同的资源分配策略,并完成了一项措施的地位意识的基础上种族。随着年龄的增长,孩子们越来越意识到非裔美国人和欧裔美国人之间的财富地位差距,并更消极地判断群体之间的医疗资源不平等。此外,随着年龄的增长,儿童纠正了资源不平等,而不是使其永久化,但只有当非洲裔美国儿童处于不利地位时。随着年龄的增长,儿童在推理他们对弱势非洲裔美国人群体的判断时也会提到权利。当欧裔美国儿童处于不利地位时,他们并没有系统地将更多的资源分配给一个群体而不是另一个群体。结果进行了讨论,在社会不平等,弱势地位,道德判断,和群体间的态度。
Children’s decisions regarding the allocation of societal resources in the context of preexisting inequalities were investigated. African-American and European-American children ages 5–6 years (n = 91) and 10–11 years (n = 94) judged the acceptability of a medical resource inequality on the basis of race, allocated medical supplies, evaluated different resource allocation strategies, and completed a measure of status awareness based on race. With age, children were increasingly aware of wealth status disparities between African-Americans and European-Americans, and judged a medical resource inequality between groups more negatively. Further, with age, children rectified the resource inequality over perpetuating it, but only when African-American children were disadvantaged. With age, children also referenced rights when reasoning about their judgments concerning the disadvantaged African-American group. When European-American children were disadvantaged, children did not systematically allocate more resources to one group over another. The results are discussed in terms of social inequalities, disadvantaged status, moral judgments, and intergroup attitudes.
