Abstract
"1. Authoritarian attitudes...were not indicative of negative attitudes toward integration. 2. Negro students...show highly authoritarian attitudes as well as strong positive attitudes toward all areas of school integration. 3. White students in the segregated school systems studied show high authoritarianism though less than Negro students. 4. White students show a number of positive attitude responses toward many aspects of school integration, thus easing the expressed fear of widespread interracial conflicts in integrated schools in this area, though problems may arise in situations necessitating close personal-social contact.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
