The Education-Tolerance Relationship: Is It Biased by Social Desirability?
Knudsen, Knud
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v39 n4 p319-34 Dec 1995
A model was proposed to account for the possibility that recognition of the social desirability of tolerance influences the stated attitudes of persons with more education. The model, which takes into account potential distortions, was applied to a survey of Norwegians about new immigrants, and complex findings are discussed. (SLD)
