“…However, differences were not considerable (mean scores were 3.34-subtle-vs. 3.09overt-in the entire sample). In another study, Molero et al (2013) had previously found in various stigmatized groups in Spain (e.g., Latin American immigrants, Romanian immigrants, people with HIV, gays and lesbians) that subtle forms of discrimination were more related to two measures of psychological well-being-affect balance and selfacceptance-than blatant forms of discrimination. In any case, the negative consequences of both subtle and overt forms of prejudice seem to be rather similar (Jones et al, 2016).…”

Discrimination and prejudice against LGBTI people in Spain are much lower than they used to be; however, negative attitudes towards them may still persist. The purpose of this study was to analyze whether LGBTI individuals perceive the existence of prejudice or discrimination due to their sexual orientation in the workplace. To assess these perceptions in relative terms, we compared them with those of heterosexual individuals. We also analyzed whether perceived discrimination was associated with work stress, the presence of common mental disorders, and depression. Results revealed that LGBTI employees reported experiencing greater discrimination in the workplace because of their sexual orientation, which in turn led to a greater incidence of work stress, mental disorders, and depression. Our findings confirm that job discrimination against LGBTI people is still present, along with some of its harmful consequences, and highlight the need for interventions to reduce prejudice against LGBTI persons in the workplace.

There has been growing discussion surrounding the phenomenon of Islamophobia in Western societies over the last few years. However, in-depth empirical research of the prevalence and patterns of prejudice toward Muslims remains scarce, especially in the Canadian context. With data from the 2011 Canadian Election Study and the 2014 General Social Survey, this study measures the extent to which negative feelings toward Muslims are present among the general adult population, and the extent to which Muslim Canadians themselves say they have experienced discrimination in recent years due to their religion, ethnicity, and culture.

“…Este ocultismo en cuanto a la consideración de las actitudes prejuiciosas lleva a diversos autores a plantearse la existencia de nuevos modelos de prejuicio, que es lo que denominan prejuicio sutil. Esta manifestación del prejuicio, no por ser sutil, es menos dañino para las personas objeto de él (Molero, Recio, García-Ael, Fuster y Sanjuán, 2012).…”

ResumenIntroducción. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue analizar la existencia de prejuicios en la población universitaria del Campus de Melilla (España) hacia los migrantes que cruzan la frontera en situación irregular. El papel de los educadores y el personal sanitario cobra un especial interés en este contexto, ya que son ellos los que van a tener un mayor contacto con los mismos. Esto hace necesario el desarrollo de investigaciones sobre esta temática.Método. El estudio se centra en conocer si existen actitudes prejuiciosas en estudiantes universitarios, usando la Escala de prejuicio sutil y manifiesto hacia los migrantes en situación irregular en la Ciudad Autónoma de Melilla. La muestra está compuesta por 205 estudiantes de los Grados en Educación y Enfermería que se imparten en el Campus de Melilla. Se ha utilizado una metodología empírico-analítica siendo un estudio Ex Post Facto de tipo correlacional en el que se realizaron análisis descriptivos e inferenciales.Resultados. Los resultados muestran que no existen diferencias significativas en torno a las actitudes prejuiciosas y la variable género. Por el contrario, los datos indican que la variable titulación y cultura de origen inciden en las actitudes que los universitarios muestran hacia las personas migrantes.Discusión. Los resultados del estudio ponen de relieve la existencia de estudiantes universitarios con cierta carga de prejuicios hacia los migrantes en situación irregular. Preocupa que estudiantes de titulaciones de áreas tan sociales como la educación y la sanidad muestren este tipo de valoraciones hacia personas que, por diversos motivos, han tenido que emigrar de sus países (ya sea por pobreza, guerras, persecuciones políticas o por orientación sexual).Palabras Clave: Prejuicio sutil; prejuicio manifiesto; actitudes; migrantes en situación irregular. Recibido: 25.06.15 Aceptación Inicial: 10.08.15 Aceptación final: 23.06.16 Las actitudes prejuiciosas del alumnado universitario hacia los inmigrantes
