Negro-white attitudes towards the administration of justice as affecting Negroes

Abstract

A questionnaire of 56 items was completed by 1,099 persons (246 white college students, 660 Negro college students, 42 white adults, and 151 Negro adults). Negro and white attitudes correlated highly. Resemblance was found to be greater between college students than between noncollege adults; highest correlations were found between responses of Negro college males and females (.95), and the lowest between Negro college females and white college females (.76).
