Keyword: Implicit Bias

Abstract: We investigated how lifetime racial contact shapes the other-race effect (ORE) in monoracial and bi-/multiracial young adults from the US using a novel face discrimination paradigm. Results indicated that bi-/multiracial individuals were more sensitive to low-level face identity contrasts and that lifetime racial contact reduced the ORE in monoracial participants.
