Assimilation and discriminatory perceptions and experiences
This paper examines the relationship between assimilation and discriminatory practices encountered by Hispanic-Americans. Theories of intergroup relations have typically assumed that as members of minority ethnic groups assimilate to a dominant group, they perceive and experience lower degrees of discrimination directed against them. In reviewing theories of majority–minority relations, we have called this the "assimilationist" model. This view h…
Social factors influencing immigration attitudes
This report partly replicates and also extends previous work exploring social factors influencing public opinion concerning immigration policy in the United States. Our findings are that college education and perceived cultural threats, especially to the English language, have the most impact upon immigration views. Other variables having some effect are political ideology, economic outlook, age, and sex. Effects of race, income, and fear of crim…
Twenty years after
A 1972–73 study of modern and traditional value orientations among Anglo- and Mexican-Americans in Lubbock, Texas, is replicated. The instrument used earlier, consisting mainly of modernity items developed by Kahl, was administered in 1994 to a sample of Anglos and Mexican Americans (n = 757). The results show a convergence of the two ethnic groups on modernity scales. Hispanics had moved in the direction of modernity, while on several scales Ang…
