Prejudice & bias research, explained
2 open-access prejudice & bias studies, each with a flashcard deck and a quiz.
- Does cooperating in a Black virtual body reduce implicit bias?
White participants who embodied a Black avatar and built a puzzle together with a Black virtual partner showed a larger drop in implicit racial bias than those who built it alone while the partner watched.
- Does getting to know several people of another race reduce bias?
Chinese preschoolers who learned the names of and moved in sync with four different Black adults lost their implicit anti-Black bias, while children who did the same with only one Black adult did not.
