description The coincidence of minority ethnic status and low socioeconomic status makes it difficult to separate class and ethnic prejudice. We have designed a survey experiment in which class, ethnicity, and other relevant factors could be experimentally manipulated, separated, and controlled. The procedure involves presenting hypothetical situations or vignettes to respondents for their reactions. We conducted a study using this vignette experiment in a social setting where there has been considerable debate about the existence of ethnic prejudice. Using a sample of first-generation Israeli Jews of North African and European parentage, this vignette experiment shows that ethnicity influences the desire for social distance even when socioeconomic characteristics are explicitly controlled.
