Abstract
The aim of this article was to investigate the relationship between sexism and racism in a Spanish sample as well to study common psychological patterns. 406 secondary school students responded to a questionnaire packet: Ambivalent Sexism Inventory towards women (Glick and Fiske, 1996), Ambivalent Sexism Inventory towards men (Glick and Fiske, 1999), Sexual Role scale (Moya et al., 1991), Blatant and Subtle Racism scale (Pettigrew and Meertens, 1995), Self-esteem (Rosenberg, 1965), Parwaise Comparison Value Survey (Oishi et al., 1998), and Big Five (Benet-Martinez and John, 1998). In general terms measures of sexism were correlated with racism measures. However, the idea that there are similar elements underlying sexism and racism is more evident in sexim towards women than sexism towards men.
