Jim--
Not a direct answer to your question, but ....
Seems to me that stimulus discrimination training handles it adequately.
We have more practice in discriminating between members of our own
ethic group, since we see more of them than we do members of other
groups (at least when we're in the majority group). Hence more
discrimination training and finer discriminations.
Prediction from this:
Members of minority groups who interact with more members of the
majority group than their own should make finer discriminations
between members of the majority group.
Data, anyone?

Yesterday my daughter asked me the technical term for thinking that
everyone in another ethnic group looks the same. I assume there is a
term for it - but I don't know what it is. Anyone?
