A field experiment for studying race relations embedded in organizations
通过实地实验检验了问卷施测程序和受访者种族对回应率、研究反应、种族关系感知及满意度的影响，发现同种族群体会议与匿名邮寄方式下受访者的体验和回应存在差异。
When social scientists conduct research in organizations, they engage in relationships with respondents in order to obtain information. For studies of race relations in organizations, questions arise about how researchers take account of their organizational and racial group memberships. This field experiment tests hypotheses derived from embedded intergroup relations theory about the effects of questionnaire administration procedures and race of respondents on response rate, reactions to the research, perceptions of race relations, and satisfaction. Results provided support for several hypotheses that predict respondents will experience the research and respond differently when they answer questionnaires in race alike group meetings than when they report anonymously by mail.
