Wittenbrink et al. , 2001 : (a) movie and iat. When white participants watched positive movie on black people doing nice household things, their iats scores were diminished vs. when the movie showed the black family doing bad things: (b) priming in context. In different places like graffiti and also in church. Basically we found out that context matters: blacks in good places, iats diminished vs. when they are in the urban settings. Kawakami & phills (2007) joystick study: seen black or white faces, trained to bring joystick closer to them when they see black faces and push joystick away when they see white faces.
