Social Distance Correlates: Religiosity, Education, And Personality, Jeanne C. Bigger
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Equal access to social privileges for all men is a right that has been overtly defended in America, but a right which has not always been fully maintained in practice.

The church and the school have been expected to take the lead in combating intolerance, but investigations of the role of religiosity among prejudiced and tolerant subjects have raised a question as to the effectives of religious training. If the use made of religious belief is determined by the individual’s psychological needs, it may be that personality characteristics …
