Race schematicity, memories for racially stereotyped portrayals, and race-based peer preferences of 70 young children (32 African American, 38 White) were assessed. Consistent with schema-based models of stereotyping, race schematicity was positively and significantly associated with memory distortions of racial stereotype-inconsistent drawings into stereotype-consistent ones. Conversely, race schematicity was negatively and significantly associated with accurate memories for racial stereotype-inconsistent content, and with memory distortions of racial stereotype-consistent portrayals into stereotype-inconsistent ones. As predicted, race schematicity was positively and significantly associated with same-race peer preference bias, as was children's age in months. Results support application of the schematicity construct and relevant social psychological research with adults to the study of young African American and White children's racial stereotyping and processing of race-relevant information.
对70名幼儿（32名非裔美国人，38名白人）的种族图式性、对种族刻板印象描绘的记忆以及基于种族的同伴偏好进行了评估。与基于图式的刻板印象模型一致，种族图式性与将不符合种族刻板印象的图画歪曲为符合刻板印象的图画的记忆扭曲呈正相关且具有显著意义。相反，种族图式性与对不符合种族刻板印象内容的准确记忆以及将符合种族刻板印象的描绘歪曲为不符合刻板印象的描绘的记忆扭曲呈负相关且具有显著意义。正如所预测的，种族图式性与同种族同伴偏好偏差呈正相关且具有显著意义，儿童的月龄也是如此。研究结果支持将图式性结构及与成年人相关的社会心理学研究应用于对非裔美国和白人幼儿的种族刻板印象及与种族相关信息处理的研究。
