Abstract | This study examined the effects of professors' race and clothing style on student evaluations. Students were randomly assigned to one of four conditions in which they received a photograph and description of a professor. The only difference between conditions was the photograph, which systematically varied race (Black or White) and clothing style (casual or formal). Both Black and White students rated the Black professor less favorably than the White professor. Students trusted the Black professor more when he was pictured in formal compared to casual clothing, while the reverse was true for the White professor. The authors' results support previous research showing that Black professors have a significant disadvantage in the student evaluation process when compared to White professors. (As Provided). |
