“…In other words, modern racism exists under the radar in subtle, covert manifestations and actions. In order to continue to behave consistent with their negative attitude and feelings toward minorities, the modern racist must find rooted in their environment a plausible explanation that justifies their "modern racist" behavior that can be ISSN 2329-9150 2016 viewed as nonprejudiced (Augoustinos & Reynolds, 2002;Brief, Dietz, Cohen, Pugh, & Vaslow, 2000;Cokely et al, 2010;Jackson, 2011;McConahay, 1983McConahay, , 1986McConahay et al, 1981).…”

Gender and race have consistently been associated with racial prejudice and discrimination. This study investigates these relationships further along with college major. Looking at a college academic major that is overrepresented with a gender and racial group associated with modern racism to discover if this leads this academic major to predict modern racism attitudes and beliefs. The research participants consisted of 225 undergraduate and graduate students at an ethnically diverse regional university in the southeastern United States. As hypothesized, gender, race, and college major are significant predictors of modern racism.

“…Prejudicial attitudes and beliefs, although improved greatly, have morphed from blatant overt racial prejudice into racial prejudice that is covert, which today is referred to as modern racism (Augoustinos & Reynolds, 2002;Brief et al, 2000;Cokely et al, 2010;Jackson, 2011). The implications of modern racism are that of a more indirect and rationalized behavior toward Blacks and other minorities where one's negative attitudes and behaviors cloaked with nonracial attitudes and behaviors to appear non-racist.…”

“…Classic racism was demonstrated by the pre-civil rights era attitudes toward Blacks and other minorities, for example businesses may tell their hiring managers to "lighten up" their sales people by reducing the number of Black employees or not placing Black employees where they interact with the public (Brief et al, 2000). Most social psychologists suggest that prejudice and racism operate at different levels at the individual, interpersonal, intergroup, and at the institutional levels (Augoustinos & Reynolds, 2002;Jackson, 2011).…”

Political orientation and race have consistently found to be associated with attitudes leading to the foundational elements underpinning prejudice. This study investigates these relationships more fully in order to determine the magnitude of these relationships leading to modern racist attitudes. The research participants consisted of 225 undergraduate and graduate students at an ethnically diverse regional university in the southeastern United States. Consistent with existing literature, White participants reported greater levels of modern racist attitudes than did Non-White participants. As hypothesized, political orientation and race significantly related to modern racist attitudes. Implications for continuing future research on political orientation, race and other factors associated with modern racism.

“…Racial intolerance is defined here as a disinclination to accept members of a different race in one's close environment, for instance, as neighbors (Davies et al 2011). Racial intolerance relates to the notion of prejudice, but while prejudice denotes generally negative attitudes toward an out-group (Augoustinos and Reynolds 2001), intolerance refers more directly to a rejection of its members.…”

Abstract:This article examines relationships between religion and racial intolerance across 47 countries by applying multi-level modeling to European survey data and is the first in-depth analysis of moderation of these relationships by European national contexts. The analysis distinguishes a believing, belonging, and practice-dimension of religiosity. The results yield little evidence of a link between denominational belonging, religious practice, and racial intolerance. The religiosity dimension that matters most for racial intolerance in Europe is believing: believers in a traditional God and believers in a Spirit/Life Force are decidedly less likely, and fundamentalists are more likely than non-believers to be racially intolerant. National contexts also matter greatly: individuals living in Europe's most religious countries, countries with legacies of ethnic-religious conflict and countries with low GDP are significantly more likely to be racially intolerant than those living in wealthier, secular and politically stable countries. This is especially the case for the religiously devout.2
