虽然许多学术研究都涉及种族主义，但宗教歧视在很大程度上被忽视。目前的研究调查了222名英国穆斯林的自我报告的种族和宗教歧视水平。答复者指出，2001年9月11日之后，隐性或间接歧视的程度上升了82.6%，遭受公开歧视的程度上升了76.3%。因此，目前的工作表明，重大的世界事件不仅可能影响对少数群体的成见，而且可能影响对少数群体的偏见。结果表明，宗教信仰可能是一个更有意义的预测偏见比种族或民族。一般健康问卷评分表明，35.6%的参与者可能患有心理健康问题，问题指示性评分与受访者经历9月11日相关虐待的特定虐待事件的报告之间存在显着关联。缺乏有关宗教歧视及其影响的实证工作令人关切。
Although much academic research has addressed racism, religious discrimination has been largely ignored. The current study investigates levels of selfreported racial and religious discrimination in a sample of 222 British Muslims. Respondents indicate that following September 11th, 2001, levels of implicit or indirect discrimination rose by 82.6% and experiences of overt discrimination by 76.3%. Thus, the current work demonstrates that major world events may affect not only stereotypes of minority groups but also prejudice toward minorities. Results suggest that religious affiliation may be a more meaningful predictor of prejudice than race or ethnicity. General Health Questionnaire scores indicate that 35.6% of participants likely suffered mental health problems, with significant associations between problem-indicative scores and reports of experiencing a specific abusive incident of September 11th–related abuse by respondents. The dearth of empirical work pertaining to religious discrimination and its effects is a cause for concern.
