The design of this study used a cross-sectional survey, with participant (N=384) students aged 18-25 years and heterosexual oriented, obtained through accidental sampling technique. Data were collected using RFS-12, A Three-factor Model of Social Identity Scale, and the Attitudes Toward Lesbian and Gay Men(ATLG) Scale. Results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that religious fundamentalism and social identity played a significant role in explaining prejudice against homosexuals(R=0.576; F=94,433; p<0.001). Meanwhile, the partial analysis revealed that religious fundamentalism could significantly explain the prejudice toward homosexuals (t=13.306; p<.001), while social identity could not(t=0.087; p=0.931). Additional analysis showed that prejudice toward homosexuals differed based on gender, type of university, presence or absence of contact, the quantity of contact, and quality of contact. The implications of this study were discussed in the context of Indonesia's contemporary society.
