Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The study found that the group of relatively unprejudiced high school students became less prejudiced after group discussion of racial attitudes, while the group of relatively prejudiced high school students became more prejudiced after the same discussion. Therefore, those who were relatively unprejudiced became less prejudiced and those who were relatively prejudiced became more prejudiced.
