一般来说，多样性信念是关于多样性对群体运作的工具性的信念。最近的社会心理学研究侧重于社会层面，将支持多样性的信念视为个人认为多样性有利于社会进步的信念。尽管越来越感兴趣的社会亲多样性的信念，没有系统验证的规模测量亲多样性的信念是迄今为止。我们解决了这个缺点，并研究了新开发的亲多样性信念量表（PDBS）在四个样本的信度和效度。结果表明，PDBS是可靠的，充分区别于相关的和既定的规模，并有效地预测外部标准，如外群的态度或群间威胁。
In general, diversity beliefs are beliefs about the instrumentality of diversity for the functioning of groups. Focusing on a societal level, recent social-psychological research addressed pro-diversity beliefs as individuals' beliefs that diversity is beneficial for the progress of society. Despite the growing interest in societal pro-diversity beliefs, no systematically validated scale measuring pro-diversity beliefs is available to date. We addressed this shortcoming and studied the reliability and validity of the newly developed Pro-Diversity Beliefs Scale (PDBS) across four samples. Results indicate that the PDBS is reliable, adequately distinct from related and established scales, and valid in predicting external criteria such as outgroup attitudes or intergroup threat.
