Abstract
The validity of Doyle and Aboud ‘s Multi-Response Racial Attitude (MRA) test was examined using Surabaya’s Javanese (SJ) and Chinese (SC) children’s pictures projected in multimedia, including the development of racial prejudice among the participants. MRA (Kline, 2005) uses six children pictures from three different ethnic groups. To encourage children’s responses, their attitude was measured through a computer program. Children from 5-6 years (N = 82) and from 9-11 years (N = 86) from Muslim, Christian, public and private schools were participating in this study. A criterion-related validity was tested by correlating the new MRA test and the Ethnocentrism Scale (E-scale) test of prejudicial attitude. Only the third set of MRA’s test is correlated significantly with E-scale (r = .469, p< .05). Older SJ children seems to develop prejudice more than the younger ones, on the other hand the SC children have much less prejudice towards SJ children.
