Simpler ethnic slurs predict immigrant segregation and hazardous-work assignments

Evidence

Also supportive of Allport’s analysis, the current evidence indicates that antilocutions can promote exclusion. In the first effort to explicitly examine the relationship between exclusion and ethnic labels, Mullen and Rice (2003) showed that the use of ethnophaulisms towards ethnic immigrant outgroups in the US did indeed predict the exclusion of those outgroups from the host American society. Ethnic immigrant groups that were referred to with less complex (and, to a lesser degree, more negative) ethnophaulisms were less likely to marry native-born Americans, more likely to be segregated into ethnic neighborhoods, and more likely to be deemed suitable for hazardous work. — John F.
