Since references to immigrants or coloured people are made in both the indices of 'subjective orientation' and the items measuring attitudes, it may appear that there is an element of tautology in these correlations. However, a factor analysis of 20 items included in the interview schedule revealed several orthogonal factors corresponding closely to the three subjective orientations, namely, racism, conformity, and cosmopolitanism. The three orientations were independent of each other, but racism was found to be closely associated with the perception of immigrants as competing for housing and jobs. A more detailed exposition of the findings of the factor analysis will be included in the final report of this study, to be published by the Institute of Race Relations.

I have shown elsewhere that a sudden increase in male juvenile unemployment was closely associated with the outbreak of racial disturbances in Nottingham and the Notting Hill area of London in 1958, See H.A. Richmond, 'Applied Sociology and Public Policy concerning racial relations in Britain', Race (Vol. I, No. 2,1960), pp. 14-26.
