Abstract

2 groups of Ss, a Jewish group and a non-Jewish group labeled 100 photographs as Jewish or non-Jewish and selected the 30 that appeared most Jewish-looking. "In both groups high F scorers, but in neither group was there a significant difference in accuracy between high and low scorers. There was no significant relationship in either group between response bias and accuracy. With respect to between-group differences Jews were more accurate than non-Jews and manifested a tendency to label more photographs as Jewish."
