Allport’s antipathy definition fails to capture modern complexities of prejudice.

Evidence

Although Allport’s definition of prejudice (ch. 1, ā€œWhat is the Problem?ā€) as ā€œan antipathy based upon a faulty and inflexible generalizationā€ (1954/1979, p. 9) drew attention to troubling social problems, it did not account for the complexities of the prejudices that social scientists have since contemplated. — John F. Dovidio, Peter Glick, Laurie A. Rudman, On the Nature of Prejudice, 173
