Abstract In light of current egalitarian norms, it seems intuitive to assume that people endorsing ethnically prejudicial beliefs are largely unaware of their xenophobic content. However, a cognitive consistency perspective would suggest that individuals with low anti-prejudice standards might care less if their opinions are prejudiced. Corroborating this idea, Study 1 (N = 919) reveals that intra-individually the endorsement of prejudicial beliefs was negatively related to their evaluation as xenophobic (prejudice awareness), but more so among individuals with strong self-related egalitarian standards. Study 2 (N = 1,201) replicates these findings and shows that egalitarian standards salience led to a stronger negative association between prejudice endorsement and awareness. This suggests that low-egalitarians are less suitable targets for awareness-raising components of anti-prejudice interventions.

自己的种族偏见总是微妙的吗？偏见认可和偏见意识的不一致取决于自我相关的平等主义标准和动机

摘要 根据当前的平等主义规范，可以直观地假设支持种族偏见信仰的人在很大程度上不知道其仇外内容。然而，从认知一致性的角度来看，反偏见标准低的人可能不太关心他们的意见是否有偏见。研究 1 (N = 919) 证实了这一观点，研究 1 (N = 919) 表明，个人内部对偏见信念的认可与其作为仇外心理（偏见意识）的评估呈负相关，但在具有强烈自我相关平等标准的个人中更是如此。研究 2 (N = 1,201) 重复了这些发现，并表明平等主义标准的显着性导致偏见认可和意识之间更强的负相关。
