"Attitudes towards traditionally stigmatized groups do not load onto a single generalized prejudice dimension, as previously assumed. Rather, these attitudes form three distinct dimensions reflecting attitudes towards groups that are seen as dangerous (for example, violent criminals and drug dealers), derogated (for example, the unemployed and those with physical disabilities) or dissident (for example, feminists and protestors)109. Notably, attitudes towards dangerous groups correlate more strongly with right-wing authoritarianism than with social dominance orientation, whereas attitudes towards derogated groups correlate more strongly with social dominance orientation than with right-wing authoritarianism; attitudes towards dissident groups who both threaten traditional social conventions and challenge the extant social hierarchy correlate comparably with right-wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation."
