International Tourism, Ethnic Contact, and Attitude Change.
Amir, Yehuda; Ben-Ari, Rachel
Journal of Social Issues, v41 n3 p105-15 1985
Evaluates a book about Egypt, designed to improve the ethnic attitudes of Israel tourists who were about to visit that country as a cognitive intervention. Reports that the intervention was successful only in moderating negative attitudinal changes, and that the intergroup contact provided by tourism does not guarantee positive attitude change. (KH)
