Описание
Итог:Four theories purporting to explain patterns of prejudice among church members were tested separately and simultaneously using matched samples of Presbyterian and Methodist church members in the North and the South. Status concern and dogmatism were the strongest determinants of prejudice in both North and South. Religious variables such as orthodoxy and ethicalism proved to be weaker and associated only with anti-black prejudice, not anti-Semitism. Allport's theory of intrinsic-extrinsic religiosity and prejudice was not supported; it is argued that past research findings on intrinsic-extrinsic religiosity can be interpreted in terms of status concern and dogmatism. The strongest determinants of prejudice among church members appear to be personality factors rather than religious beliefs.
