Abstract

The goal of the study was to determine if Black, White, and Hispanic respondents differed in how they rated Black and White individuals in government leadership positions. In so doing, an online experiment was conducted using racially specific names as a proxy for the leader’s race. The findings revealed that White respondents did not rate the performance of an agency director who was Black any differently than they did the performance of an agency director who was White. Similarly, disparities were not found in how Black respondents rated the performance of a Black or White agency director of a government agency. However, Black respondents were more likely to report that the mayor should keep a high performing Black director than a White director. No such disparities were found in the reporting of White respondents. White and Black respondents did rate the performance of the White director differently in some performance cues. Finally, Hispanic respondents were not found to rate the performance of the Black and White director in the middle of the ratings given by Black and White respondents. These findings do suggest that Black and White individuals can look past color and judge a leader by their performance.

机构主管的种族会影响他们的表现吗?

摘要

该研究的目的是确定黑人、白人和西班牙裔受访者对担任政府领导职位的黑人和白人的评价是否不同。为此,进行了一项在线实验,使用特定种族的名称作为领导者种族的代表。调查结果显示,白人受访者对黑人机构主管的绩效评价与他们对白人机构主管绩效的评价没有任何不同。同样,在黑人受访者如何评价政府机构的黑人或白人机构主管的表现方面也没有发现差异。然而,黑人受访者更有可能报告说市长应该保留一位表现出色的黑人董事而不是白人董事。在白人受访者的报告中没有发现此类差异。白人和黑人受访者确实在某些表现线索中对白人导演的表现进行了不同的评价。最后,在黑人和白人受访者给出的评分中间,没有发现西班牙裔受访者对黑人和白人导演的表现进行评分。这些发现确实表明,黑人和白人可以透过肤色来判断领导者的表现。
