The secondary transfer effect: the effect of friendship amongst adolescents on prejudice towards specific outgroups
Umeå universitet, Sociologiska institutionen.
(engelsk)Manuskript (preprint) (Annet vitenskapelig)
Abstract [en]

Previous research show that contact between outgroups can reduce prejudice and lead to positive intergroup relations. In this article, I study the secondary transfer effects (STEs) of outgroup friendship. More specifically, I study if intergroup friendship between native Swedes and specific ethnic outgroups is associated with STEs towards other specific ethnic outgroups. STE builds on the primary transfer effects (PTE) and occurs when the positive attitudes of intergroup contact are generalized to groups not included in the primary contact. Analyses rely on Swedish self-reported survey data from 2,831 high school students, aged 16-18. Five OLS regression analyses are used and results show that positive attitudes from friendship between individuals are generalized not only to the primary outgroup but also to secondary outgroups. However, STEs tend to be group-dependent and thus limited. STE is found to be present mainly when friendships cross perceived social distance and socially constructed group boundaries. In conclusion, STE differs between different ethnic outgroups and perceived social distance can help explain why.
