摘要：
Recent research has demonstrated that despite sharing some attitudes consistent with the Republican Party, African-Americans still tend to support Democratic candidates (Kidd et al., Social Science Quarterly, 88: 165-176, 2007). The current study represents a snapshot of political philosophies 2 weeks prior to the presidential election and actual voting behavior of a diverse sample. Factor analysis of a questionnaire measuring current political attitudes revealed five dimensions, which in turn, were shown to vary depending on political party affiliation and ethnicity. Results showed a detailed picture of exactly which attitudes African-Americans share with different political parties. © 2008 Springer Science + Business Media, LLC.
