Because of its emphasis on diminishing race and avoiding racial discourse, color-blind racial ideology has been suggested to have negative consequences for modern day race relations. The current research examined the influence of color blindness and the ambiguity of a prejudiced remark on perceptions of a racial minority group member who confronts the remark. One hundred thirteen White participants responded to a vignette depicting a White character making a prejudiced comment of variable ambiguity, after which a Black target character confronted the comment. Results demonstrated that the target confronter was perceived more negatively and as responding less appropriately by participants high in color blindness, and that this effect was particularly pronounced when participants responded to the ambiguous comment. Implications for the ways in which color blindness, as an accepted norm that is endorsed across legal and educational settings, can facilitate Whites' complicity in racial inequality are discussed.
由于其强调减少种族差异和避免种族言论，因此有人认为，盲目种族意识形态对现代种族关系产生了负面影响。本研究考察了盲目种族主义和有偏见言论的模糊性对面对该言论的少数族裔群体成员的看法的影响。113 名白人参与者对描述一个白人角色发表有偏见的言论的情景片段做出了回应，该言论的模糊性存在变数，之后一个黑人目标角色对该言论进行了回应。结果表明，在盲目种族主义程度较高的参与者中，目标回应者的负面印象和回应的适当性都较低，而当参与者对模糊的评论做出回应时，这种影响更为明显。讨论了作为一种在法律和教育环境中都得到认可的既定规范，盲目种族主义是如何促进白人在种族不平等中的共谋关系。
