Abstract
Based on previous research, we expect White targets to be associated with higher levels of SES and Black targets with lower levels of SES. The Go/No Go Association Test (GNAT) will allow us to sort the associations and to assess whether Black Targets are associated with Low status words and occupations, whether White targets are associated with high status words or occupations, or whether both associations exist or do not exist. The shifting standards effect is the tendency for subjective judgments of targets to show null effects of stereotypes while objective judgements of the same targets show stereotypical effects. We're looking at the relationship between the strength with which someone holds the association from the GNAT and their tendency to shift standards in a race-SES paradigm. We would predict that those who exhibited the stereotypical association in the GNAT would exhibit a greater shifting of standards. Our findings demonstrate that those individuals with a strong Race-Status association show a greater shifting standards effect than those with a weak Race-Status association and these effects are primarily driven by the White-High Status association.
