Twenty-nine items from existing scales of ethnic prejudice were rewritten so that the terms 'people' or 'most people' or 'humans' were substituted for the specific minorities originally designated. The scale thus constructed (termed M for misanthropy) was found to be correlated .43 (.53 when corrected for attenuation) with a 20-item version of the UC-POS scale for general ethnic intolerance. The results of the study were discussed with reference to the possible connections between prejudice and misanthropy. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
