Fig. 6: High-contact participants displayed a reduction of racial bias in cued recall of person-knowledge over the training period while low-contact participants demonstrated increasing racial bias.

n = 70. The shaded region surrounding each linear regression line represents the 95% confidence interval for the regression coefficient. Lifetime interracial contact is a z-scored continuous variable. For representation purposes, here we have plotted cued recall accuracy at the sample average for contact (center), 2 standard deviations below the sample average (left), and 2 standard deviations above the sample average (right). Accordingly, simple differences were analyzed at −2, 0, and +2, which are referred to as low-, average-, and high-contact scores due to their relative position in the sample distribution.
