Abstract
This study explored value priorities, prejudice toward the Africans, and the relationships between these dimensions in 233 Italian adolescents. Measures: Portrait Values Questionnaire (Capanna et al., 2005), to assess value priorities, and Subtle and Blatant Prejudice Scale (Manganelli Rattazzi & Volpato, 2001) to distinguish subjects in: Equalitarians, Bigots, and Subtles. Results1) adolescents scored higher in self-transcendence and openness to change than conservation and self-enhancement; 2) the 51,5% of adolescents were classified as Equalitarians, the 41,6% as Subtles, and the 6,9% as Bigots; 3) Equalitarians scored higher than the others in self-transcendence, while Bigots and Subtles scored higher in self-enhancement than Equalitarians; 4) self-transcendence negatively affected prejudice, conservation and self-enhancement were predictors of prejudice. Differences for sex and age emerged.
