Regression analyses indicated that a sample of American students who were humanitarian-egalitarian in their outlook, who possessed a high level of education, who were less supportive of the Protestant Ethic, and who employed a high percentage of relativism in their decision making were more likely to have positive attitudes toward minorities than those not possessing such attributes. Age proved to be a predictor of negative attitudes toward minorities. The findings help provide a rationale for further investigation of the relationship between moral and epistemological reasoning as well as for implementation of moral education programs as means to reduce negative racial attitudes.
回归分析表明，相较于那些不具备此类特质的美国学生样本，具有人道主义平等主义世界观、受过高等教育、不太支持新教伦理且在决策中较多采用相对主义的美国学生样本，对少数族裔更有可能持积极态度。年龄被证明是对少数族裔持消极态度的一个预测因素。这些研究结果有助于为进一步探究道德推理与认识论推理之间的关系以及实施道德教育项目以减少负面种族态度提供理论依据。
