Group Work Ethic

workwhtsHard working - lazy
Text of this Question or Item 
Now I have some questions about different groups in our society. I'm 
going to show you a seven-point scale on which the characteristics of 
people in a group can be rated. In the first statement a score of 1 
means that you think almost all of the people in that group are 
"rich."  A score of 7 means that you think almost everyone in the 
group are "poor."  A score of 4 means you think that the group is not 
towards one end or another, and of course you may choose any number 
In between that comes closest to where you think people in the group 
stand.
B. The second set of characteristics asks if people in the group tend 
to be hard-working or if they tend to be lazy.
1. Where would you rate whites in general on this scale?

Text of this Question or Item 
Now I have some questions about different groups in our society. I'm 
going to show you a seven-point scale on which the characteristics of 
people in a group can be rated. In the first statement a score of 1 
means that you think almost all of the people in that group are 
"rich."  A score of 7 means that you think almost everyone in the 
group are "poor."  A score of 4 means you think that the group is not 
towards one end or another, and of course you may choose any number 
In between that comes closest to where you think people in the group 
stand.
B. The second set of characteristics asks if people in the group tend 
to be hard-working or if they tend to be lazy.
4. Asian Americans?

worksoHard working - lazy
Text of this Question or Item 
Now I have some questions about different groups in our society. I'm 
going to show you a seven-point scale on which the characteristics of 
people in a group can be rated. In the first statement a score of 1 
means that you think almost all of the people in that group are 
"rich."  A score of 7 means that you think almost everyone in the 
group are "poor."  A score of 4 means you think that the group is not 
towards one end or another, and of course you may choose any number 
In between that comes closest to where you think people in the group 
stand.
B. The second set of characteristics asks if people in the group tend 
to be hard-working or if they tend to be lazy.
6. Southern Whites?
