Mediated Intergroup Contact: Concept Explication, Synthesis, and Application (2012, background): “In traditional contact theory, some psychologists conceptually distinguished the quantity and quality of intergroup contact (eg, Voci & Hewstone, 2003 ).”
Positive and negative intergroup contact: Interaction not asymmetry (2018, methodology): “Two items each, adapted from Voci and Hewstone (2003), were used to measure category salience during positive and negative contact.”
Imagining Intergroup Contact Can Improve Intergroup Attitudes (2007, background): “Contact has also been shown to reduce prejudice because it reduces intergroup anxiety (Islam & Hewstone, 1993; Voci & Hewstone, 2003).”
Attitudes toward Immigrants, Immigration, and Multiculturalism in New Zealand: A Social Psychological Analysis 1 (2008, background): “In addition, Voci and Hewstone (2003) reported that interpersonal contact predicted more positive”
Ethnic penalties in the labour market: employers and discrimination (2006, background): “There is also some evidence that increased contact between members of different ethnic groups can reduce prejudice (Brown, Vivian and Hewstone, 1999, Voci and Hewstone, 2002) and there is hard evidence from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) that one particular form of contact – interethnic partnerships…”
Imagined contact as a prejudice‐reduction intervention in schools: the underlying role of similarity and attitudes (2014, background): “Ample research has provided strong evidence about the effectiveness of intergroup contact in reducing prejudice (e.g., Eller & Abrams, 2004; Pettigrew & Tropp, 2008; Stathi & Crisp, 2010; Voci & Hewstone, 2003; for review, see Pettigrew & Tropp, 2006).”

From imagery to intention: A dual route model of imagined contact effects (2010, methodology): “…effects via one of the same mediational routes demonstrated with actual and extended contact (e.g., Islam & Hewstone, 1993; Paolini et al., 2004; R. Turner et al., 2007c; Voci & Hewstone, 2003): intergroup anxiety explained the positive effects of imagining intergroup contact on outgroup attitudes.”
Reducing Competitive Victimhood in Kosovo: The Role of Extended Contact and Common Ingroup Identity (2012, methodology): “3 To allow us to include the 57 participants who reported having no extended contact at all, quantity scores were recoded prior to the calculations so that 0 corresponded to no contacts and 6 corresponded to over ten (Čehajić et al., 2008; Voci & Hewstone, 2003).”
Positive intergroup contact, negative intergroup contact, and threat as predictors of cognitive and affective dimensions of prejudice (2015, background): “The relationship between contact and positive feelings was significant but substantially smaller when salience was low (Voci & Hewstone, 2003, Study 1).”
