Description/Abstract

This research study examines underlying biases that occur in the selection process by college admissions evaluators in evaluating applicants applying for college admissions. Participants are recruited from Pitzer College and Claremont McKenna College - institutions who are apart of the Claremont Colleges consortium. The study uses a 2 x 2 factorial design. I predict that this research project will uncover underlying psychological ingroup bias in the college admissions process.
