Summary
A social distance scale was administered to 30 Fijian women and 30 Indian women from rural areas in Fiji. In contrast to an earlier study, it was found that the Indian subjects showed consistently greater social distance towards ethnic outgroups than the Fijian subjects. The difference between the two groups was related to differences between the Fijian and Indian cultures, particularly to the differences in sex roles within the two cultures.
