"A new #study claims that individuals possessing higher levels of the personality trait openness are less prone to #antisemitic attitudes, and that this relationship is partially mediated by interpersonal contact with #Jewish individuals. This is based on #research -published in the August issue of #PersonalityandIndividualDifferences.
#TaliaMorstead and #AnitaDeLongis from the Department of #Psychology at the #University of #BritishColumbia conducted the study. The #researchers set out to explore the #psychosocial mechanisms underlying antisemitic attitudes, noting that “#antisemitism is an enduring phenomenon with parallels to other forms of #prejudice yet demonstrates a distinctive capacity to adapt in rhetorical form to the prevailing #sociocultural context."
