In intergroup relationships, there are different explanations for positive attitudes toward outgroups. The present study examined a model that included some of these explanations that were not considered together previously. Based on the similarity-attraction hypothesis, contact hypothesis, common in-group identity model, and intergroup threat theories, we expected a positive association of perceived similarity and contact quality and quantity with positive attitudes toward Peruvians, with the mediation of perceived symbolic (identity) and realistic (employment) threats. We hypothesized that contact quality would have a stronger link than quantity with positive attitudes and perceived threats. Using data from an open Chilean survey (N = 944), the results supported the relationship of perceived similarity and contact quality and quantity with positive attitudes toward Peruvians, with the mediation of perceived symbolic and realistic threats, except for the association of contact quantity with positive attitudes. As expected, contact quality was linked to more symbolic and realistic threats than contact quantity, but was not related to more positive attitudes. The relative relevance of the predictors and mediator variables for future interventions oriented to improve intergroup attitudes and the limitations associated with the sample and data analysis are discussed.
