FERREIRA, Andreza Silene Silva et al. Interpretative repertoires about racial prejudice in football Racial prejudice in football. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.3, pp. 338-348. ISSN 1413-294X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20170034.

The aim of this study was to analyze the interpretative repertoires that people use to position themselves for or against in relation to racial prejudice situations in football. 295 college students took part in this research, with a mean of 21 years old; 37.1% were male and 62.9% female. A questionnaire in which participants responded to questions about a fictitious situation in which a supporter insulted a player of the rival team because of the color of his skin was used. Immediately after respondents were asked to justify whether the situation presented could be considered as an example of racial prejudice. The lexical analysis performed showed that, out of the five classes found, four of them presented the idea that prejudice exists and only one denies its existence. These results are discussed stressing the fact that the context of football represents an excellent setting to research situations of flagrant racial prejudice since the competition acts as plausible justification.

Palabras clave : racial prejudice in football; lexical analysis; racial discrimination.
