Outline
The focus of this research was on children’s ethnic attitudes. Also, the research examines the
perspectives of children from a majority/dominant ethic (Anglo-Australian) group and
children from a minority/migrant (Pacific Island) group to a third out-group (Indigenous
Australian).
Methodology
The sample included 119 kids in grades 1 through 6, of whom 95 were Anglo-Australian, and
60 were Pacific Islanders. The researcher utilised six photos to represent the kids in the
sample. Additionally, each participant was sampled separately in a calm area near the
classroom. After putting the subjects at ease, they would display the answer booklet, which
had two portions related to the various measures of interest.
Results
The out-group ethnicity was not loathed, which implies that they were less probable than the
in-group ethnicity. The researchers in this study performed exploratory data analytics to
ensure that the data fulfilled their goals. Additionally, the results showed that they differed
considerably from the neutral scale point.
Strengths
They projected that individuals who belonged to the Anglo-Australian ethnic majority would
value their in-group more than both ethnic out-groups. As a result, this prediction has strong
support, validating the results of earlier research. Additionally, though in different ways,

, children of both ethnic majority and ethnic minority backgrounds distinguished between their
respective ethnic out-groups in terms of their ethnic views.
Weaknesses
The results showed that individuals from the ethnic majority preferred the ethnic family
inside their own in-group, with whom they have a close relationship. Most minor minority-
aged youngsters cannot distinguish between their preferences, scoring them favourably
equivalent.
Opinion
Future research may be significantly aided by understanding the opinions of youngsters from
the ethnic majority group provided by this study. The study is very intriguing and raises the
possibility that social variables, such as social knowledge, influence children's ethnic
sentiments.
