Se pretende ofrecer una visión general de algunas de las contribuciones psicosociales más importantes a uno de los asuntos más antiguos y debatidos dentro de la disciplina: el prejuicio. Después de algunas definiciones y una breve revisión histórica de su estudio, se presentan dos de los enfoques teóricos que han aglutinado la mayor parte de la investigación: el prejuicio como actitud negativa y el prejuicio como conflicto intergrupal. Finalmente, se revisan algunas líneas de investigación recientes que tratan de explicar las expresiones más sutiles del prejuicio en nuestros días.
