The Shifting Standards Model (SSM) of stereotypic judgments is presented as a model of implicit bias that produces a psychological mechanism contributing to continued racial wage disparities. The SSM is used to explain race‐based differences in subjective evaluations of compensation decisions. We report three experimental studies in which research participants made compensation decisions for either a White or Black employee. Across three studies, participants judged a Black employee's raise as subjectively better than a comparably described White employee's raise. Participants who work in Human Resources fields (Study 3) and those with experience making compensation decisions (Study 2) were as likely as other participants to show evidence of the shifting standards effect. The findings are discussed in the context of individual implicit biases contributing to continued wage disparities and potential organizational practices to ameliorate these influences.

使用基于刻板印象的判断的变化标准模型来检验种族对薪酬决策的影响

刻板印象的转变标准模型（SSM）是作为隐性偏见的模型提出的，隐性偏见产生了导致持续的种族工资差异的心理机制。SSM用于解释薪酬决策的主观评估中基于种族的差异。我们报告了三项实验研究，其中研究参与者为白人或黑人雇员做出了补偿决定。在三项研究中，参与者认为黑人雇员的加薪比同等描述的白人雇员的加薪在主观上要好。在人力资源领域工作的参与者（研究3）和具有薪酬决策经验的参与者（研究2）与其他参与者一样，有可能显示出标准转变的证据。
