| Summary: | The aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the subtle and blatant prejudice scale toward indigenous people inArgentina and its relationship with right wing authoritarianism, social dominance orientation, tolerance for disagreement, ideologicalpoliticalself-positioning, sex and age.Asample of 304 participants from Buenos Aireswas selected using a non-probabilistic incidentalmethod. Participants were aged from 18 to 41 years and they were asked to fill a self-report questionnaire including an Argentineanversion of the subtle and blatant prejudice toward indigenous people scale together with right wing authoritarianism scale, socialdominance orientation scale, tolerance for disagreement scale, ideological-political self-positioning scale.We found adequate psychometricsproperties for the subtle and blatant prejudice scale, as well as significant and positive correlations with right wing authoritarianism,tolerance for disagreement, social dominance orientation and political self-placement. These findings may indicate thatprejudice towards indigenous people in Argentina is a complex problem that cannot be explained only by considering intergrouprelations, because different socio-psychological variables are related with its consolidation and maintenance. |
