Studies of Heitmeyer (Uni Bielefeld, project "Gruppenbezogene Menschenfeindlichkeit") declare, that about 35% of the German population have pejorative opinions about homeless people. In spite of that, I couldn't find an empirical study, that collects data about the distribution of stereotypes or prejudices about homeless people, which are common in the population.

Background: I want to conceptualize an activity / presentation for adult people (context: adult education, respectively: public relations of a social service) in order to reduce stereotypes or prejudices about homeless people. I think, this is necessary, because: "How do you want to integrate homeless people into society, when there are many reservations?"

Thank you very much in advance for your support!
