Secondary students’ prejudices towards immigration

We carried out a review of the best-known questionnaires and catalogues on prejudices regarding immigration that exist in society and we drew up a new questionnaire, with positive and negative scales of prejudices, in order to apply them to secondary school students in the Basque Country. We analysed the responses of almost 1,500 students and thus obtained results for the main prejudices existing amongst the students. Subsequently we examined these, the most consolidated, prejudices and compared them with scientific data, reports and other research, and which have generated debate about these prejudices. As a result of this research, we believe that we have made available to educators, inside and outside the classroom, the basis for drawing up strategies and plans for educational intervention with secondary school students.
