The relative importance of personal beliefs, meta-stereotypes and societal stereotypes of age for the wellbeing of older people
Negative images of old age can harm older individuals’ cognitive and physical functioning and health. Yet, older people may be confronted with age stereotypes that are inconsistent with their own personal beliefs. We examine the implications for older people's wellbeing of three distinct elements of age stereotypes: their personal beliefs about their age group, their perception about how others generally perceive older people ( i.e. their meta-st…
From Stigmatized Immigrants to Radical Right Voting
This study examines the interplay between presence of stigmatized immigrants, threat, and intergroup contact that underlies radical right voting (voting propensity and actual district‐level vote results). On the one hand, low‐status immigrants are often stigmatized and depicted as threats. Thus, presence of stigmatized immigrants should heighten threat perceptions, thereby increasing radical right voting. On the other hand, as positive contact wi…
Who Is to Blame? Official Discourse and Ethnic Diversity Attitudes During the 2011 Riots in England
In 2011, the killing of a Black man by a police officer triggered violent riots across England. In a context where ethnic minorities are rarely openly blamed, we examined the lens through which the events were interpreted in the official discourses of the British Prime Minister. A thematic content analysis (Study 1) revealed that, without explicitly blaming ethnic minorities, the discourses built on antagonistic normative references opposing a vi…

Does Survey Respondents’ Immigrant Background Affect the Measurement and Prediction of Immigration Attitudes? An Illustration in Two Steps
Over the past few decades, Western societies have become highly diverse, with an increasing share of the population having foreign roots. Just like the native population, defined here as national citizens with national ancestry and no foreign roots (up to the third generation), individuals with an immigrant background have opinions on newcomers to the country. Yet, most research on attitudes toward immigration using large-scale survey data routin…
Opposition to Antiracism Laws Across Swiss Municipalities
Public opposition to antiracism laws—an expression of prejudice toward immigrants—is widespread in Switzerland as well as in other European countries. Using data from the European Social Survey 2002 (N = 1,711), the present study examined across Swiss municipalities individual and contextual predictors of opposition to such laws and of two well‐established antecedents of prejudice: perceived threat and intergroup contact. The study extends multil…
Nationalism and patriotism as predictors of immigration attitudes in Switzerland
Using Swiss data from the 2003 International Social Survey Programme (N = 902), this multilevel study combined individual and municipality levels of analysis in the explanation of nationalism, patriotism and exclusionary immigration attitudes. On the individual level, the results show that in line with previous research nationalism (uncritical and blind attachment to the nation) increased exclusionary immigration attitudes, while patriotism (prid…
