Residence students' perceptions of institutional support for interracial contact at the University of Cape Town

While inter-racial contact in university settings has been researched previously, the important concept of institutional support has not. This construct was listed by Allport as a necessary condition under which contact will yield positive results i.e. reduced prejudice towards outgroup members. This study investigated University of Cape Town residence students' perceptions of institutional support for inter-racial contact to assess whether such perceived support had a noticeable impact on prejudice measures between students.
