The objective of the proposed pilot project is to gain greater insight into the relationship between various racial compositions and their psychological effects upon whites and blacks. Such a study of the psychological factors thought to contribute to interracial tensions that result in the withdrawal of whites from integrated settings would have its greatest implications for issues bearing on school integration. The investigator feels that results from this study could be used as a guide in composing a variety of integrated work and therapeutic groups. By varying the racial composition of a series of small groups, the investigator will attempt to determine the following: 1) What effect does the racial composition of a group have on the perceived levels of control and comfort for blacks and whites? 2) Do whites and blacks experience the effects of varying racial compositions at different or similar racial configurations? The investigator plans to use the results in the pilot study to strengthen the quality of an anticipated full MRI proposal.

拟议的试点项目的目标是更深入地了解各种种族构成及其对白人和黑人的心理影响之间的关系。这种对心理因素的研究被认为是造成种族间紧张关系的原因，这种紧张关系导致白人从种族融合的环境中撤出，这将对与学校融合有关的问题产生最大的影响。研究者认为，本研究的结果可以作为组成各种综合工作和治疗小组的指导。通过改变一系列小群体的种族构成，调查人员将试图确定以下内容：1)一个群体的种族构成对黑人和白人的控制和舒适程度有什么影响？2)在不同或相似的种族结构中，白人和黑人是否会受到不同种族构成的影响？研究者计划在试点研究中使用结果来加强预期的完整MRI建议的质量。
