Allport’s influence traces partly to theoretical pluralism rather than a single model

Evidence

Allport did not advocate a single pet theory of prejudice but chose instead to identify and illustrate a variety of perspectives, ranging from macro, or social-structural causes, to micro, or individual causes. He included provocative examples that, even when he chose not to interpret them in depth, could be used and exploited by others. In short, he was a synthetic and generous thinker. — , Rudman, Laurie A - On the Nature of…, 98
