ERRATA 1. On page 12, paragraph 1, line 6, the following is written:
“Still, Glick and Fiske (2001) make the compelling argument that prejudice is altogether reducible to group antipathy”.
It should read (changed wording bold and underlined):
“Still, Glick and Fiske (2001) make the compelling argument that prejudice is not altogether reducible to group antipathy”.
2. On page 69, paragraph 1 ends with the following statement:
“Noteworthy, when two predictors account for the exact same variance in a dependent variable in multiple regression analyses (and SEM), the result is a “winner takes it all” effect for the predictor having the strongest zero-order relation”.
Obviously, if two predictors account for the exact same variance, then they must be perfectly correlated (i.e. displaying singularity). The point to be made is rather that an independent variable can relate relatively strongly to a dependent variable at the zero-order level while providing no unique predictability in multiple regression analyses. This would occur whenever another predictor is included that has a stronger zero-order relation with the outcome variable, and accounts for (all of) the overlap between the first predictor and the outcome variable (as in full mediation).
3. On page 69, paragraph 2, line 1, it is suggested that a step-wise regression was run. The performed analysis was a hierarchical regression.
