  • Relationship between Knowledge, Stereotyping, and Prejudice in Interethnic Communication Jonathan Matusitz Estudios de Turismo AUM Knowledge Prejudice Sstereotyping Cultural Theory This study describes, analyzes, critiques, and synthesizes four theories pertaining to interethnic communication: the contact hypothesis, Anxiety/Uncertainty Management Theory, CulturalTheory, and the White Racial Identity Development Model. All center on the relationship between knowledge, stereotyping, and prejudice. What is valuable about those theories is that they attempt to integrate communication into a perspective on cultural, behavioral, social, interactional, and developmental transformations. What the four theories have in common is that the understanding and development of healthy interethnic relations and fl exible interactions require a high degree of ingroup communication and, at the same time, an equally high degree of out-group communication.To corroborate the major arguments put forward in this study, relevant research studies (and the methodological underpinnings thereof) are analyzed. Three levels of knowledge (highest level of knowledge, middle level of knowledge, and lowest level of knowledge) are also compared in an attempt to confi rm, or disconfi rm, the idea that increased knowledge of minority groups increases liking of such groups. 2012 artículo científico 1695-7121 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=88123053008 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=881 PASOS.
