Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

Behavioral economists Michael Norton and Samuel Sommers found that Whites view race as a zero-sum gamethat is, decreases in bias against African Americans over the last 60 years are associated with increases in what they perceive as bias against Whites. While still seeing anti-Black bias as greater today than anti-White feeling in society, their analysis shows that, in the minds of the White respondents, the two biases are coming closer together. Black respondents also saw a marked decline in anti-Black bias during the same period but perceived only a modest increase in anti-White feelings. While Norton and Sommers's research deals only with perception of reality, it does suggest that race, and not just that of non-Whites, influences one's perception of society.
