Notes: Gender is coded as male = 0 and female = 1; race is coded as White = 0 and Black or African American = 1; sample is coded as MTurk = 0 and Qualtrics = 1. COVID-19 = coronavirus disease 2019.

aGender was equally distributed across race, χ2(1) = 2.71, p = .10.

bThe Qualtrics sample was disproportionately female, χ2(1) = 9.14, p < .01.

cThe Qualtrics sample had a greater number of Black Americans, χ2(1) = 72.16, p < .001.

*p < .05. **p < .01.
