The relationship between minority statuses and prejudiceVeve, Mia 02 June 2009 (has links)
It is important to explore prejudice to understand and learn how to decrease it.
There is a central belief that “personal knowledge reduces prejudice.” Does a person
who has personal knowledge of prejudice, for example, those of minority status have
less prejudice towards others? There has been considerable research on the prejudice that
the majority might feel towards minorities but there is limited research on minorities’
prejudice towards others. The current study focuses on the relationship between a person
of self-perceived minority statuses and her or his feelings of prejudice towards others
(e.g. minorities and mainstream).
Previous research had found a positive correlation between fundamentalism and
prejudice. This study investigated that relationship and a positive correlation was found.
Another aspect that has been studied in previous research, dealing with prejudice and
self reports, is social desirability. This study investigated the relationship between social
desirability and multiple minority statuses and no statistical significance was found. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was utilized to investigate the relationship
between multiple minority statuses and prejudice. The analysis showed no statistical
significance on the relationship between multiple minority statuses and prejudice.
There is still a lot about prejudice that remains unknown. This area of research
should be investigated further to better understand minority prejudice, which in turn
might lead us to overcome its negative effects.

Ethnic Politics in New States: Russian and Serbian Minorities After SecessionBatta, Anna 05 1900 (has links)
New states are often born in a volatile environment, in which the survival of the new country is uncertain. While analysis of the nationalizing new governments exists, research focuses mainly on domestic politics. I argue that the treatment of minority that remains in the new states is a function of the interaction of the dual threat posed by the minority itself domestically on one hand and the international threat coming from the mother state to protect its kin abroad on the other hand. Specifically, I argue that there is a curvilinear relationship between domestic and international threat and the extent of discrimination against the politically relevant minority. Most discrimination takes place when domestic and international threats are moderate because in this case there is a balance of power between the government, the minority, and the rump state. With time-series-cross-sectional (TSCS) data analysis this dissertation systematically tests the treatment of Russian and Serbian minorities in all post-Soviet and post-Yugoslav states between 1991 and 2006 and finds statistically significant results for the curvilinear hypothesis. Territorial concentration of the minority and the ratio of national capabilities between the mother and the seceded states prove to be especially important predictors of minority treatment. In addition, with most similar systems (MSS), most different systems (MDS) design methods, and directed case studies I apply the curvilinear hypothesis to the Russian minority in the Baltic States and the Central Asian Republics, and also to the Serb minority in the countries of the former Yugoslavia to present a detailed analysis.
