Abstract
To determine attitudes toward world powers as well as their own national/ethnic group, 960 boys and girls divided into Arab-Christian, Arab-Moslem, Jewish non-Orthodox, and Jewish Orthodox groups, in grades 2 through 12, gave responses to a projective test of flag preference. Factors of ethnicity, religion, sex, and grade level evaluated by analysis of variance indicated some similarities, but also important differences between the various groups. In ranking the flags non-Orthodox and Orthodox Jews had very high agreement, Christians and Moslems had high agreement, but combined Arabs versus combined Jewish groups showed little agreement. Christians and Moslems showed some differences. Sex and grade level were not major factors in attitude differences.
