Exploring selective solidarity with refugees in Germany
Studies and public opinion polls in Germany reveal double standards in the acceptance of Ukrainian versus Black/Arab and Muslim refugees.

We further explored whether national glorification and political orientation exacerbate selective…

Study 1 ( N = 969) ex…
