Attitudes of Freshmen toward Arab-Americans: A University Campus Dilemma.
Miville, Marie; Sedlacek, William E.
Journal of the Freshman Year Experience, v6 n2 p77-88 1994
A survey of 197 entering university students during summer orientation found students had significantly more negative attitudes toward Arabs in 2 situations (boarding an airplane, getting financial help), and more positive attitudes in buying a used car from a salesperson. Findings suggest attitudes toward Arabs have become more tolerant since a 1992 study. (Author/MSE)
