PREJUDICE 偏见 In taking up the consideration of prejudice, we are dealing with a state of mind that has close affinities to paranoid states and which bears thestamp of the pathological, but at the same time seems to be so widespread that it defies any easy classification as pathological. We have become aware only in the last few years, by reason of the growing concern over civil rights and more recently the pressures created by the Black Power movement, of the extent and intensity of prejudicial attitudes in contemporary society. Allport (1958) has given us a comprehensive discussion of the problem of prejudice, which traces the many complex facets of the problem and underlines the fact that prejudice is an extremely complicated phenomenon which has its root in intrapsychic conflicts, in processes of group interaction and related processes that take place at the social and cultural levels. The generation, patterning, and maintenance of prejudice are functions of the complex interplay of these many aspects of the problem. 在考虑偏见时，我们所面对的是一种精神状态，这种精神状态与偏执状态密切相关，并带有病态的印记，但与此同时，这种精神状态似乎是如此普遍，以至于无法将其简单地归类为病态。我们只是在最近几年才意识到，由于对民权的日益关注以及最近黑人权力运动造成的压力，当代社会的偏见态度的程度和强度。Allport(1958)给了我们一个对偏见问题的全面讨论,追溯了许多复杂的问题,凸显了一个事实:偏见是一个极其复杂的现象有其根在内心的冲突,在小组互动的过程和相关的过程发生在社会和文化水平。偏见的产生、形成和维持是这个问题许多方面复杂相互作用的结果。
