Table 3.

Simultaneous regressions predicting outcome measures as a function of historical privilege and affect during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic (N = 400)

	Anti-Black structural racism (R² = .29)^a		Anti-White structural racism (R² = .12)^a		Support for redress (R² = .21)		Social justice motivation (R² = .50)		Charity motivation (R² = .12)		Right-wing attitudes (R² = .09)
	β	p	β	p	β	p	β	p	β	p	β	p
Historical privilege	.29	< .001	− .23	< .001	.25	< .001	.54	< .001	.24	.001	− .16	.002
Guilt	.28^b	< .001	− .18^b	< .01	.33^c	< .001	.32^c	< .001	.10	.16	− .19	.001
Empathic concern	.08	.10	.06	.23	− .01	.87	− .03	.55	.16	.02	− .06	.30
Anger	.12	.02	.24	< .001	− .01	.86	.08	.16	.03	.66	.26	< .001

Note: Perceptions of anti-Black and anti-White structural racism concern ‘today’. Regression analyses for social justice and charity motivation were performed on a subset of participants (n = 199), who indicated that they have contributed personally towards relief measures during the COVID-19 pandemic

^aSimilar regression results are obtained for perceptions of interpersonal racism

^bIndicates an estimate that is significant at p < .05 controlling for shame

^cIndicates an estimate that is significant at p < .01 controlling for shame
