520 |a Project Understanding was a program to involve suburban churches in combatting racism in six metropolitan areas. This paper reports data from a part of the evaluation of the Project aimed at assessing its effects on church members' attitudinal racism. Attitudinal racism was conceptualized as multi-dimensional, using four scales to measure racial attitudes in a matched sample of members before and after the Project. Using t-tests to evaluate the difference of means, we found significant changes in racial attitudes in the anticipated direction in the post-test as compared with the pre-test. When those reporting involvement in the Project were compared with those not involved, there was more change in the attitudes of the non-involved than the involved. However, the involved were significantly less racist in attitudes before and after the Project than the non-involved, leading to speculation about a ceiling effect. Other characteristics of the two groups were compared. Those involved had characteristics that may have predisposed them to participate. A brief summary of other Project findings also is included.
