摘要：

This study examined potential antecedents to color-blind racial attitudes in an effort to identify factors that may be necessary for the provision of effective multicultural services and training. Specifically, we examined motivational dynamics related to socially desirable responding (self-deception and impression management) and also to internal and external motivation to respond without prejudice in a sample of 198 psychology trainees. In general, the results indicated that self-deception was related to greater endorsement of color-blind attitudes. At the same time, internal motivation to respond without prejudice was related to greater awareness of the various dimensions of racism. Overall, the results of the present study indicate that helping students and practitioners discover their own internal reasons for developing a nonracist identity may facilitate the formation of a critical consciousness regarding race and racism in society today.
