Time on immigrants and stereotypes

August

Time magazine has an interesting article on immigrants and stereotypes.

Two scholars conducted a study, asking 2,100 Ohioans about their attitudes toward four particular groups: Europeans, Asians, Middle Easterners and Latinos. The survey asked specifically about “each group’s intelligence, income levels, self-sufficiency, ability to assimilate, and proclivity toward violence.”

The results are not as predictable as one would think. Check out the article here.
