Evaluations of White American versus Black American discrimination claimants' political views and prejudicial attitudes
چکیده انگلیسی

Although White Americans experience less frequent and less severe forms of discrimination than ethnic minorities (Schmitt & Branscombe, 2002), White Americans may actually be more likely to claim discrimination compared to ethnic minorities (Goldman, 2001). The present research investigated evaluations of White and Black American discrimination claimants' political views and prejudicial attitudes. Across two studies, a White American target was evaluated as more politically conservative when claiming discrimination compared to a control condition. In contrast, a Black American target was evaluated as more politically liberal when claiming discrimination compared to a control condition. Both the White and Black American target were evaluated as more prejudiced against the outgroup when claiming discrimination; however the increase in prejudice evaluations was more pronounced for the White American target. The present research suggests that lay people make distinct inferences about the political views and prejudicial attitudes of White versus Black American discrimination claimants.


► We examine evaluations of White and Black American discrimination claimants.
► White claimants were evaluated as more conservative compared to a control.
► Black claimants were evaluated as more liberal compared to a control.
► White and Black claimants were evaluated as more prejudiced compared to a control.
► The increase in prejudice evaluations was more pronounced for the White claimant.
