Interminority Attitudes: The Roles of Ethnic and National Identification, Contact, and Multiculturalism
This study examined interminority attitudes among a large sample (N = 1,987) of two minority
groups (of Turkish and Moroccan origin) in the Netherlands. The focus is on their attitudes
toward each other, toward a third ethnic minority group, and toward the native majority
group. The aim is to simultaneously test theoretical predictions related to group categorization
and group identification, intergroup contacts, and endorsement of multiculturalism.
More social distance was reported toward the less-similar ethnic outgroup than the moresimilar
Muslim one. More contact with a particular outgroup was associated with less social
distance toward that outgroup. There was evidence for secondary transfer effects of contact in
relation to other ethnic minority outgroups, but not in relation to the native majority group.
Stronger national identification and stronger endorsement of multiculturalism were both
associated with less social distance toward all ethnic outgroups.
