To examine implicit and explicit racism as moderators of each vignette’s impact, we wanted to be sure that their values were not affected by vignette version. We thus assessed explicit racism before presenting the vignette in our survey and used an implicit measure administered to the same participants approximately six months prior to the other data analyzed here. Because 52 participants were missing data on the AMP, we replaced their missing values with an AMP score predicted by regressing AMP on explicit racism, age, age squared, race, education, region of residence, and household size (R-square = .105).
