This study investigated the relationship between the voting behavior of naive white Ss toward a Negro or white individual in a small group discussion when the Negro or white individual talked more than anyone else in the group or did not speak. 64 white female college students were divided into 32 experimental groups engaging in one of two experimental conditions. Groups in one condition consisted of two Ss and one Negro confederate (unknown to Ss). The other condition contained groups composed of two Ss and one white confederate (also unknown to Ss). They solved 20 relatively unstructured concept-formation problems, discussed their solutions, and then voted for the person that they thought had the most insight into the problem. 32 other female college students served in a control condition in which 16 groups, consisting of two Ss and a Negro confederate each, solved concept-formation problems; but no talking was permitted. Results showed that, in the silent control condition, there was no significant difference in Ss' voting behavior where each S voted between the Negro confederate and the other white S. In the high-talk experimental condition, however, the Negro confederates received significantly fewer votes than did the white confederates in their respective groups. It was concluded that the number of votes obtained by an individual depends, to a large extent, on that individual's race when engaged in high verbal interaction but not when engaged in a non-speaking situation.
