Much research has been conducted regarding European American attitudes towards various minority groups, such as Hispanics/Latinos and African Americans. However, racial minorities are typically treated as passive targets of prejudice and discrimination. Additionally, when assessing implicit associations people have towards racial groups, researchers have largely used the race Implicit Association Test. However, it is difficult to determine whether scores on the IAT reflect in-group favoritism, out-group derogation, or a combination of both. Using System Justification Theory, the current study examined racial minority and majority attitudes towards various racial groups to determine whether and when minorities will derogate towards their own or other racial minority groups. These attitudes were examined using direct and indirect measures of prejudice to help distinguish between positive and negative associations towards in- and out-group members. Finally, the predictive validity of both implicit associations and explicit attitudes were assessed across a discriminatory and attitudinal measure: job hiring decisions and support for immigrants. Results showed that 1) high perceived legitimacy predicted negative implicit associations towards African Americans, but only among European American participants and 2) positive implicit associations towards European Americans and explicit prejudice towards African Americans predicted less support for immigration policies. These findings suggest that racial minorities are necessary in prejudice research to determine the generalizability of prejudice theories and whether their attitudes predict discriminatory behavior.
