Racial bias research explores the ways in which individuals may hold implicit or explicit prejudices or discriminatory attitudes towards people of different racial backgrounds. This research area examines how bias impacts decision-making, behavior, and interactions within society. It also investigates the underlying factors that contribute to the development and perpetuation of racial bias, such as socialization, media influence, and societal norms. Researchers in this field aim to raise awareness of racial bias and its consequences, as well as develop strategies to combat and reduce bias in various contexts.
