Description
This article describes a study investigating Jewish students' prejudices, the prejudice of other students toward the Jew and a comparison of the stereotype held by other students in regard to Jews with the tested personality of the Jewish students. The results indicated that Jewish students show prejudice similarly to that shown by other students although the pattern of prejudice varies. There was a slight tendency for the stereotype to be verified in the case of social power but not in terms of clannishness.
