Zybrea Knight · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  A) is incorrect because the experiments showed that whites were not necessarily more likely to help regardless of the victim's race. In fact, research, including the concept of aversive racism, suggests that implicit biases can affect helping behaviors, which can lead to differential treatment based on the race of the victim.
