Tóm tắt

This study evaluates a cognitive intervention aimed at improving relations between ethnic groups in general, and between Israelis and Egyptians in particular. The intervention comprised a specially designed booklet about Egypt for Israeli tourists, given to them before their visit to that country. The intervention group included 352 Israeli tourists; 131 other Israeli tourists were not exposed to the booklet. Both groups toured Egypt, and both groups were given before‐and‐after questionnaires measuring interethnic attitudes. The measures revealed changes as a result of the tour itself and additional changes related to the booklet. The results are discussed regarding their contribution to interethnic attitude change.
