520 |a Finland, traditionally characterised as a Christian country, is becoming increasingly more culturally, religiously, and ethnically diverse, which invites investigation on intergroup relations. This study examines the connections between attitudes towards Muslims, meta-prejudice—the ingroup’s expectations of the outgroup’s negative evaluations of the ingroup—and religion-related factors among Finnish Christian-background youth (N = 140). I analysed the survey data, gathered in 2019 and 2020, by scrutinising the distributions, descriptive statistics, and statistical inferences (Pearson’s RHO, p-value). Most participants (73%) hold a positive attitude towards Muslims. There were no statistical differences between groups of different religiosities. Prejudiced Christian background youths were more likely to expect Muslims to evaluate Christians negatively. However, fairly over a half of the participants thought that Muslims evaluate Christians negatively. Cross-faith friendships and knowing religiously others through one’s parents are connected to a pro-Muslim attitude. The findings are discussed from a Finnish societal standpoint and from the social psychology perspective of reducing prejudice.
