Team members @ManeezaDawood and @Mikaela_Spruill and affiliates @RondaLoPsych and @camgriffi presented new research in a symposium about racial representation in media at the Society for Experimental and Social Psychology (SESP) conference in Lisbon.

Then, when a police department they studied issued a directive to limit these types of discretionary stops, racial disparities in stops were reduced. These findings show how both officer decision-making and organizational policies matter.

New research from Eberhardt, @tweets_on_camp, & colleagues shows that Black (vs. White) drivers are more likely to be stopped by police officers for discretionary reasons (like broken lights) and to view these stops more negatively. tinyurl.com/3xzf3rsb
