This research examines the mediating role of stereotype modification in the relationship between social dominance orientation (SDO) and multicultural acceptance in South Korea's increasingly diverse society. We obtained a sample of 402 participants between the ages of 20 and 65 through an online survey. We used SPSS 26.0 for statistical analyses, including frequency, correlation, and regression analyses. Employing Hayes' Model 4, we examined the mediation effect with a bootstrap sample of 10,000 iterations, determining the significance of the effect with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The results revealed nuanced relationships among the variables, shedding light on the complex dynamics of social cognition and intergroup relationships in the South Korean context. The research concludes that individuals with a higher social dominance orientation tend to have lower acceptance of multiculturalism and are more likely to hold prejudiced attitudes toward outgroups. This finding suggests that SDO is a significant factor in integrating and adapting migrants into host societies and can lead to social conflict. The study implies that addressing SDO is crucial for fostering positive attitudes toward multiculturalism and reducing discrimination.
本研究考察了在韩国日益多元化的社会中，刻板印象修正在社会支配取向（SDO）与多元文化接纳之间关系中所起的中介作用。我们通过在线调查获得了402名年龄在20至65岁之间的参与者样本。我们使用SPSS 26.0进行统计分析，包括频率分析、相关性分析和回归分析。采用海斯模型4，我们通过10000次迭代的自抽样样本检验中介效应，并用95%置信区间（CI）确定效应的显著性。结果揭示了变量之间细微的关系，为韩国背景下社会认知和群体间关系的复杂动态提供了线索。研究得出结论，社会支配取向较高的个体往往对多元文化主义的接纳程度较低，并且更有可能对外群体持有偏见态度。这一发现表明，社会支配取向是影响移民融入东道国社会的一个重要因素，可能导致社会冲突。该研究意味着，解决社会支配取向问题对于培养对多元文化主义的积极态度和减少歧视至关重要。
