DISCRIMINATION is defined as an act of differential treatment toward a group or an individual perceived as a member of a group. Moreover, the intent and/or effect of differential treatment is to create a disadvantage of some sort (William M. Newman, American Pluralism, New York: Harper & Row, 1973, p. 199).

PREJUDICE is defined as an avertive or hostile attitude toward a person who belongs to a group and is, therefore, presumed to have the objectionable qualities ascribed to that group (Gordon Allport, The Nature of Prejudice, New York: Doubleday & Company, 1958, p. 8).
