Next, we'd like to get your feelings toward some groups who are in the news these days. For each group listed, you will be asked to rate people in that group using something we call the feeling thermometer. Ratings between 50 degrees and 100 degrees mean that you feel favorable and warm toward the group. Ratings between 0 degrees and 50 degrees mean that you don't feel favorable toward the group and that you don't care too much for that group. You would rate the person at the 50 degree mark if you don't feel particularly warm or cold toward the group. FT Rate your feeling toward this group from zero (very cold or negative) to 100 (very warm or positive). FT_Whites Whites FT_Blacks Blacks FT_Latinos Latinos
