# Jewish-associated surname · Antisemitic stereotypes in loan narratives: stereotype tests

> We ran the same test on 200 made-up small-business loan narratives instead of biographies. We added a short phrase saying the applicant is Jewish, is a devout Jew, sits on a synagogue’s board, or has a Jewish-associated surname, then asked yes-or-no questions built on six antisemitic stereotypes, three worded differently for each. For comparison, we also added that the applicant is Israeli, a nationality; it is shown but never used for a headline.
