Have you tried Dovidio? I think there is a study like the one you mention in which he is a co-author.

I have a social psych question. I have been blogging a lot lately about racism, and just finished a post on subtle, subconscious racism. Some years back I saw a talk by a job candidate in which she described the following study: Subjects were asked to rate resumes. Some subjects saw a resume with a traditional Caucasian name (Donald) while others saw the identical resume with an African American name (Denzel). The resumes with the Caucasian names were rated higher. I am looking for a reference for this experiment. I have found studies reporting a naturalistic version of this - in which resumes were actually sent out to potential employers - but the study I am thinking was experimental and done under controlled conditions. Does anyone know a reference for the experiment I am describing? In case you are interested my blog post on the topic is here: http://hippieprofessor.com/2009/09/16/the-subtlety-of-modern-racism/ Thanks! -- Jim Dougan *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Be sure to see my blog! http://hippieprofessor.com <http://hippieprofessor.com/> --- To make changes to your subscription contact: Bill Southerly (bsouthe...@frostburg.edu) --- To make changes to your subscription contact: Bill Southerly (bsouthe...@frostburg.edu)
