This research has been instigated and developed collaboratively by a team involving representatives from the Commission for Racial Equality, Disability Rights Commission, Equal Opportunities Commission, Stonewall Scotland, the Scottish Executive and NatCen Scotland. The research is designed to answer three questions: what do Scots themselves believe is the extent of discriminatory attitudes in Scotland?; what is the extent and character of discriminatory attitudes in Scotland; and why do people hold discriminatory attitudes? These questions covered attitudes towards four groups: women, minority ethnic groups, disabled people, and gay men and lesbians.
