The present study addresses the distinction between contemporary and old-fashioned prejudice using survey data from a national sample (n=600) of self-identified whites living in the United States and interviewed by telephone in 2001. First, we examine associations among indicators of contemporary and old-fashioned prejudice. Consistent with the literature, contemporary and old-fashioned prejudice indicators represent two distinct but correlated common factors. Second, we examine whether belief in genetic race differences uniformly predicts both types of prejudice. As might be expected, belief in genetic race differences predicts old-fashioned prejudice but contrary to recent theorizing, it also predicts contemporary prejudice.
本研究利用2001年对居住在美国的600名自称白人的全国样本进行电话访谈所获得的调查数据,探讨了当代偏见与传统偏见之间的区别。首先,我们研究了当代偏见与传统偏见指标之间的关联。与文献一致,当代偏见与传统偏见指标代表了两个不同但相关的共同因素。其次,我们考察了对基因种族差异的信念是否一致地预测了这两种偏见。正如预期的那样,对基因种族差异的信念预测了传统偏见,但与最近的理论相反,它也预测了当代偏见。
