N2  - This study examines the automatic activation of negative prejudices
towards Turks using a masked affective priming paradigm in a sample of
German adolescents (aged 13 to 15). Pictures of Turks and Germans were
used as masked primes; positive and negative adjectives conveying either
other-relevant valence (e.g., honest, evil) or possessor-relevant valence (e.g.,
talented, dull) were used as targets. Results revealed that both explicit
prejudices towards Turks living in Germany as well as prejudiced behaviour
in a virtual ball-tossing game are meaningfully related to automatic
prejudice activation. As expected, these correlations were found only for
priming indices based on other-relevant targets, thereby emphasising the
differentiation of implicit prejudice into (imputed) hostility and
depreciation.
