Retraction statement: Ethnic threat and social

control: Examining public support for judicial

use of ethnicity in punishment

The above article, published online on 25 May 2011 in WileyOnline Librar y (wileyonlinelibrary.com),

has been retracted at the request of the authors and by agreement with the journal editors and Wiley

Periodicals, Inc. The second author, Eric A. Stewart, in the course of responding to concerns raised

with the data and analysis, identified a mistake in the way the original data were merged. This, in

conjunction with the discovery of other coding and transcription errors, collectively exceeded what the

authors believed to be acceptable for a published paper. They therefore voluntarily requested that the

paper be retracted. The third author, Justin Pickett, also requested retraction. He has publiclystated his

view that the identified discrepancies are not attributable to researcher error.
