Social dominance orientation (Sidanius et al, 1992) has been proposed as one antecedent of social attitudes. This study examines the relationships of this variable to prejudice, both blatant & subtle (Pettigrew & Meertens, 1995), & also to attitudes toward affirmative action. Two hundred people participated in the study. The data showed that social dominance orientation is a good predictor of blatant prejudice but not of subtle prejudice. These results are explained in relation to a multidimensional conception of the social dominance scale, in opposition to the unidimensionality defended by its author. 4 Tables, 21 References.
