Abstract
In South Tyrol, a multi-ethnic Italian province (Italians, Germans, Ladins( 1)) with an autonomous statute, the intergroup attributions expressed by me mbers of the Italian group were examined (relationship: Italians vs. German s). It was found that, while the stereotypes are more favourable to the ing roup, the attributions are more favourable to the outgroup. The implication s of these results for South Tyrol and community relations are discussed. C opyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
