En pilotstudie gjord för CNN visar att vita amerikanska barn har en stark tendens till att associera vit hudfärg med positiva egenskaper medan svart hudfärg associeras till negativa egenskaper.
Även de svarta barnen som ingick i studien hade en tendens att associera vit hudfärg som någonting positivt, dock inte i lika stor utsträckning som de vita barnen.
