The Association between Language Ability/Cultural Background and Racial Bias: A Pilot Study

There has been prejudice and bias towards other races since hundreds of years ago. Even though stereotypical racial bias has decreased or controlled consciously accompanied with education of global equality, a new form of racial differentiation - implicit bias has evolved and attached to our unconscious behaviors. The IAT test and the AMP test are typically used for detecting subtle attitudes and implicit opinions. In this case, a survey adapted from the IAT test is performed using Qualtrics, after which data analysis is conducted through SPSS to prove that multilingualism is less likely to be racially biased compared to monolingualism
