Tolerance and Intergroup Contact: The Paradoxical Effect of Attitudes Toward Minority Members Summary

In this study, we focused mainly on 1) tolerance, 2) positive and negative contact, and 3) attitudes towards the Vietnamese minority. Majority members judged three separate behaviors performed by the Vietnamese Czechs. Tolerance was conceptualized as an acceptance of negatively perceived behavior. Attitudes toward minority members were measured using a feeling thermometer. The main goal was to inspect whether positive and negative contact associates with acceptance of behavior taking into account the evaluation of the behavior. Moreover, we tested whether attitudes toward minority members mediated the link between intergroup contact and acceptance of the behavior. We employed the structural equation modeling using the Czech sample (N = 7,498). Our results showed that attitudes toward minority members are negatively associated with the tolerance among those who did not perceive the behavior positively. Consequently, the indirect effect of positive contact on the tolerance was negative regardless of how the behavior was perceived. The effect of negative contact on the tolerance was positive among those who perceived the behavior negatively. In the case of one behavior, negative contact was negatively and directly associated with tolerance. Our findings suggest that the direct effect of negative contact on tolerance may be present. However, the indirect effect via attitudes to minority members may be paradoxical because these attitudes were negatively linked with tolerance.

What is audiobook and how does it work?
Audiobooks are voice recordings of the text of a book that you listen to rather than read. Audiobooks can be exact word-for-word versions of books or abridged versions. You can listen to audiobooks on any smartphone, tablet, computer, home speaker system, or in-car entertainment system.

An electronic book, also known as an e-book or eBook, is a book publication made available in digital form, consisting of text, images, or both, readable on the flat-panel display of computers or other electronic devices. Although sometimes defined as "an electronic version of a printed book",some e-books exist without a printed equivalent.
E-books can be read on dedicated e-reader devices, but also on any computer device that features a controllable viewing screen, including desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
