This research examined the extent to which minority or "devalued"group members engendered threat reactions from interaction partners. Participants' cardiovascular responses marking challenge and threat were obtained during social interactions with White or Black confederates who described their background as either socio economically advantaged or disadvantaged. Main effects for race and status were found. When interacting with Black or disadvantaged confederates, participants exhibited cardiovascular threat responses, whereas participants inter - acting with White or advantaged confederates primarily exhibited cardiovascular challenge responses. Consistent with cardiovascular responses, participants paired with White partners performed better during a cooperative task than participants paired with Black partners. In contrast to the physiologicaland behavioural indicators, self - reports indicated greaterliking and more agreement with positive statements for Blackpartners than White partners. These findings demonstrate the value of multiple and less consciously controlled measures for the study of intergroup relations.
