\description{
Hraba and Grant (1970) describe a replication of Clark and Clark (1947) in which
black and white children from Lincoln, Nebraska were shown dolls that were either black
or white. They were then asked a series of questions, including "Give me the doll that is
a nice doll." This data set contains the frequency of children giving the same-race or different race doll in
response to this question.
