?:abstract
  • "This paper proposes a structural explanation of racial attitudes, presents the empirical evidence for it, explores racial prejudice and examines its causes. I assume that the level of racial prejudice depends upon five main causes that are analysed in the following sections. In the section 'Racial prejudice: measuring, development and demography', I address the question how to measure racial prejudice, distinguishing its various forms and levels. I then analyse the development of two of these over the last decade, and give a summary of the socio-demography of intergroup attitudes in contemporary Germany. Using factor analysis, I define a general measure of racial prejudice and distinguish six dimensions of negative attitudes towards ethnic minorities. Building upon previous empirical and theoretical work, several determinants of racial prejudice are discussed and analysed in the section 'Determinants of racial prejudice'. I deal first with the influence of economic and cultural variables and describe the perceived position of individuals in society. I then examine the effects of more stable personality variables on racial prejudice, and I suggest a new construct as a main determinant of racial attitudes. A brief investigation into the contact hypotheses is followed by a discussion of the role of education. In the section 'A model explaining racial prejudice' I develop a more explicit and complete model of racial prejudice, and relate racial prejudice to measure of socio-demographic variables including education, perceived socio-cultural circumstances, a more stable personality pattern, contact intensity, and perception of outgroups. This new view is offered as an alternative to existing methods of studying prejudice towards ethnic groups. The data analysed here is based on the 1996 ALLBUS survey [...]." (xsd:string)
