Critical reflection is a necessary yet not sufficient prerequisite for critical action, but little is known about conditions that facilitate associations between the two. This study investigates when associations between critical reflection on racism and antiracist action among White youth in the Netherlands are stronger, examining critical motivation, parental ethnic-racial socialization, and intergroup friendships as facilitating conditions. 338 17-21-years old White youth (M = 19.44, SD = 1.28, 73% female) participated in a survey study. The identified positive association between critical reflection and action was stronger for youth with higher levels of critical motivation. Parental ethnic-racial socialization and intergroup friendships, in contrast, did not moderate the association. Boosting critical motivation seems a promising avenue to fostering antiracism among White youth.
批判性反思是批判性行动必要但不充分的前提条件，然而对于促进二者之间联系的条件却知之甚少。本研究调查了荷兰白人青年中对种族主义的批判性反思与反种族主义行动之间的联系在何时更强，考察了批判性动机、父母的族裔 - 种族社会化以及群体间友谊作为促进条件。338名17 - 21岁的白人青年（M = 19.44，标准差 = 1.28，73%为女性）参与了一项调查研究。对于批判性动机水平较高的青年，所确定的批判性反思与行动之间的积极联系更强。相比之下，父母的族裔 - 种族社会化和群体间友谊并没有调节这种联系。增强批判性动机似乎是在白人青年中培养反种族主义的一条有前景的途径。
