Prejudice creates barriers for the learning and development of children from all racial and ethnic groups. With the increasing diversity of youth in North America, it is particularly timely and important to make progress toward understanding and reducing racial prejudice. Recent social and developmental research clarifies the multifaceted nature of prejudice and the need for an inter-disciplinary approach to addressing prejudice. This program of research integrates and expands advances in social psychological research on attitude change with advances in developmental research on children's cognitive capacities and limitations into the Social-Cognitive-Developmental Model of mechanisms underlying racial attitude change. This integrative model will be examined via multiple methods including observations, social-cognitive skill training, longitudinal assessments, and meta-analyses. The project will make theoretical and empirical contributions to social and developmental research on mechanisms underlying racial attitude change and will produce concrete recommendations for age-specific prejudice reduction interventions that benefit children who live and learn in a diverse society.

歧视为所有种族和族裔群体的儿童的学习和发展制造了障碍。随着北美青年日益多样化，在理解和减少种族偏见方面取得进展尤为及时和重要。最近的社会和发展研究澄清了偏见的多方面性质，以及需要采取跨学科的方法来解决偏见问题。该研究计划整合并扩展了社会心理学研究中关于态度变化的进展，以及儿童认知能力发展研究的进展和种族态度变化机制的社会认知发展模型的局限性。这种综合模型将通过多种方法进行检查，包括观察，社会认知技能培训，纵向评估和荟萃分析。该项目将为关于种族态度变化机制的社会和发展研究做出理论和经验贡献，并将提出具体建议，以减少针对特定年龄的偏见，使在多元化社会中生活和学习的儿童受益。
