  • Objectives. Heuristic study focused on common reasons for social distance from minorities and assumed that latent variables in attitudes can reveal the roots of intolerance, with a special attention to ambivalently accepted outgroups. Subjects and setting. A secondary analysis of answers to European Values Study (EVS 1999- 2010) was performed focusing on the Czech Republic alone and on Eastern European EU members (wave 3 N=10.522 and wave 4 N=13.719); responses to question Q6 (which minorities would be undesirable as neighbors). Hypotheses. Authors looked for a context in which out-groups are perceived, specifically for relationships a) between diversity and acceptance and b) between deviance and rejection of individual minority groups. Statistical analyses. Factor analyses and principal component analyses (both oblique and orthogonal rotations) based on Kaiser's criterion; Cronbach's alpha. Results. Respondents indicated consensus in social distance from minorities: the most accepted neighbors are defined mostly by ethnic or religious diversity; the most rejected groups are characterized by behavior deviant from social norms (addicts, criminals); there is a disagreement about admittance of the rest of the fourteen groups assessed (Roma, gays, AIDS patients). All factor analyses and principal component analyses yielded a stable solution close to a simple structure with three factors: 1. Diversity (ethnic, religious); 2. (Behavioral) Deviance; 3. Political extremism. Stronger social distancing from ethnic minorities and gays is related to higher minority loading on Deviance factor; conversely, minorities loading on Diversity factor tend to be accepted. Minorities who met with neighbors' ambivalence (especially Roma, gays, people with AIDS) often ambivalently appear in two factors (Diversity and Deviance). Study limitations. Methodology of Pearson's correlation matrices was used as a basis for factor analyses. (xsd:string)
