 Needed: Ambiguous "Racism" Task

Dear Colleagues,

In an upcoming study, we would like to provide participants with false feedback on a prejudice measure (i.e., that they are relatively low or high in prejudice, compared to their peers). For this study, we'd like the "test" to be not computer based. We have considered using paper and pencil self-report measures, but we feel that it is less credible to inform a participant that they are high [low] in prejudice if they clearly reported very low or high responses on the scale.

As is customary, I will summarize the responses to the list.

Thanks for your help,

Gordon Hodson
