Racial inequity was theorized to threaten Whites' self - image when inequity is framed as White privilege but not when framed as anti -B lack discrimination. Manipulations of Whites' need for self - regard were hypothesized to affect their perceptions of White privilege but not of anti - Black discrimination. In Experiment 1, White participants reported less privilege when given threatening (vs. affirming) feedback on an intelligence or personality test; in contrast, perceptions of anti - Black discrimination were unaffected by self - concept manipulations. In Experiment 2, threatening (vs. affirming) feedback decreased privilege perceptions only among Whites high in racial identity. Using a value - based self - affirmation manipulation, Experiment 3 replicated the effect of self - image concerns on Whites' perceptions of privilege and provided evidence that self - concerns, through their effect on perceived privilege, influence Whites' support for redistributive social policies.
