Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The researcher can conclude that there is no relationship between attitudes toward African Americans and preference for violent movies. Since no relationship was found, it is unlikely that preference for violent movies causes negative attitudes toward African Americans. However, it is possible that other factors may be influencing both variables, or that the variables were not measured accurately. Further research may be needed to investigate these possibilities.
