Acculturation, Identity, and the Authoritarian Worldview
A key component of the authoritarian worldview is social conformity, which manifests in a need to minimize threats to social order. This desire for stability often leads authoritarians to hold systematic and approving attitudes toward law enforcement. Previous scholarship suggests that authoritarianism is linked to attitudes shaped by the social dominance of one’s group identity. We extend this framework to Hispanic populations, whose identities …
Education, acculturation, and Latine attitudes on immigration
We study the influence of education on Latines’ immigration attitudes across levels of acculturation. Previous research argues that education shapes immigration attitudes by reducing the perceived threat. These studies use combined samples with respondents from multiple ethnic and racial groups, including groups who share cultural similarities with immigrant groups. Using data from a national survey, we conducted regression analysis examining the…
Authoritarianism, Prejudice, and Support for Welfare Chauvinism in the United States
This article examines the role of authoritarianism in shaping individual policy support for creating a waiting period before legal immigrants can access welfare programs. I use logistic regression models to analyse the opinions of non-Latino whites from the 1992 American National Election Study (ANES). I find that authoritarianism is related to a waiting period before immigrants can access welfare benefits, despite a significant number of non-aut…
Anti‐Immigrant Sentiment and the Adoption of State Immigration Policy
Over the last two decades, the American states have become increasingly active in shaping U.S. immigration policies. One consistent predictor in studies of state immigration policies revolves around public opinion or mass political attitudes in the form of anti‐immigrant sentiment. Unfortunately, past research relies extensively on blunt demographic proxies or other alternative replacements to measure mass opinion. Through incorporating a direct …

Estimating anti-immigrant sentiment for the American states using multi-level modeling and post-stratification, 2004–2008
An estimate is provided of an innovative state-level measure of anti-immigrant sentiment for use in future policy and behavioral studies. State governments became increasingly active in adopting immigrant policies in the 2000s. Previous research highlights the role of public opinion, especially attitudes toward immigrants, in explaining policy priorities and outcomes. Unfortunately, most extant studies utilize political ideology or immigrant popu…
Social Distrust and Immigrant Access to Welfare Programs in the American States
Social trust ameliorates collective action problems by allowing multicultural societies to adopt more inclusive and equitable public policies directed toward newly arriving immigrants. However, existing research warns that increasing ethnic diversity from immigrant populations can undermine levels of social trust, hindering mass support for redistributive policies that empower low‐income minority populations. This article examines the relationshi…
