The Effects of Race on Test Taking.
Reichert, Conrad A.
A test was constructed which would evoke racial preferences, and 72 black and 55 white 10th-graders were individually tested by two black and two white test givers. There was a distinct black as opposed to a distinct white response to the test items; however, the races of the test givers did not influence the way the subjects responded to any of the test items.
