"Stereotyping and evaluation in implicit race bias: Evidence for independent constructs and unique ffects on behavior": Correction to Amodio and Devine (2006).

Abstract

Reports an error in "Stereotyping and evaluation in implicit race bias: Evidence for independent constructs and unique effects on behavior" by David M. Amodio and Patricia G. Devine (Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2006[Oct], Vol 91[4], 652-661). In the article, the reported sign of a statistical coefficient was reversed, due to a transcription error, and should read as β = .32, t(28) = 1.79, p = .08, sr = .32 (p. 656). All other effects were replicated in reanalysis, and the main results and theoretical conclusions of the article remain unchanged. More information, including an analysis replication report, datasets, and analysis scripts, may be found at https://osf.io/3chzy/. The online version of this article has been corrected. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2006-12810-006.) Implicit stereotyping and prejudice often appear as a single process in behavior, yet functional neuroanatomy suggests that they arise from fundamentally distinct substrates associated with semantic versus affective memory systems. On the basis of this research, the authors propose that implicit stereotyping reflects cognitive processes and should predict instrumental behaviors such as judgments and impression formation, whereas implicit evaluation reflects affective processes and should predict consummatory behaviors, such as interpersonal preferences and social distance. Study 1 showed the independence of participants' levels of implicit stereotyping and evaluation. Studies 2 and 3 showed the unique effects of implicit stereotyping and evaluation on self-reported and behavioral responses to African Americans using double-dissociation designs. Implications for construct validity, theory development, and research design are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).
