A preliminary examination of differential sexual attitudes among individuals involved in interracial relationships: testing ¬タワJungle Fever¬タン
نویسنده
چکیده
“Jungle Fever” is a stereotype that individuals who enter interracial relationships out of a desire to experience sex with someone of a different race. This research is an initial attempt to gather empirical evidence that address this stereotype. Analysis of the sexual attitudes of never married/cohabited individuals in the 1992 National Health and Social Life Survey find little support for this stereotype. Because this finding only examines attitudes, and not motivations, this research is very preliminary. Future extensions to this work are discussed. © 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
