Abstract

Research on racial discrimination in selection interviews is surprisingly sparse.
The present research examines the impact of feelings of guilt, busyness at work, and
prejudice levels in predicting hiring decisions based on selection interviews. Results
indicate that these three factors influence hiring decisions, but not necessarily in the ways
researchers expected. Busyness and guilt tend to make low prejudiced employees favor
black applicants over equally qualified white applicants.
