“…Some participants tried to imagine the Black man's thoughts, feelings, and experiences ( perspective-taking-other condition) as they watched the video; others tried to imagine their own thoughts, feelings, and experiences as if they were in the Black man's situation ( perspectivetaking-self condition). Because both approaches have been used in past research (e.g., Batson, Early, & Salvarini, 1997;Davis, Conklin, Smith, & Luce, 1996;Galinsky, Wang, & Ku, 2008) and, in some cases, have been found to have different psychological consequences (Batson, 2009), we wanted to explore whether the specific form of perspective taking would qualify our results. After watching the video, participants completed a variant of the Implicit Association Test (IAT; Greenwald, McGhee, & Schwartz, 1998) that assesses automatic evaluations of Black Americans relative to White Americans (i.e., personalized evaluative race IAT; Olson & Fazio, 2004).…”
