Irish Students' Stereotypes about Some National and Subnational Groups within Ireland and Great Britain.

McTiernan, Timothy J.; Knox, Robert E.

Social Behavior and Personality, v7 n1 p49-64 1979

The English were described in significantly less favorable terms than the Irish. The strife in Northern Ireland was reflected in stereotypes about subnational Irish groups. While Catholics and Protestants were seen as different from each other, these differences were overshadowed by distinctions between Northern and Southern groups. (Author/BEF)
