  • Political trust in divided societies: Who trusts whom in Northern Ireland

    Sumedh Rao, Jasper Van Assche et al.•ARTICLE•Peace and Conflict Journal of…•2026

    Political trust is essential for peace in divided societies. In postaccord Northern Ireland (NI), past research has identified differences in political trust among the Catholic and Protestant communities. The present research explored which political institutions are trusted, and by whom, in the NI context. Drawing on the Northern Ireland Life and Times 2022 survey data (n = 968; 373 males, 595 females, aged 18 and over, 537 Protestant, 431 Catho…

  • Setting parameters on the role of social identity in unpacking intergroup conflict—The case of Northern Ireland

    Sumedh Rao•ARTICLE•Peace and Conflict Journal of…•2026

    Northern Ireland has a long history of ethnonational tensions, with the recent Brexit referendum heightening tensions of late. Research on identity in Northern Ireland has largely used an ethnonational lens and quantitative approaches, which obscures the complex nature of identity in the region. Using a thematic analysis study of in-depth interviews ( n = 50) conducted in Derry-Londonderry in 2017, this study explores how individuals experience a…

  • The Longitudinal Relationship Between Youth Intergroup Contact and Social Cohesion Outcomes in Two Divided Societies

    Open Access•Shelley Mckeown, Christoph Daniel Schaefer et al.•ARTICLE•European Journal of Social…•2025•Cited by: 1•References: 36

    Intergroup contact has long been established as a prejudice‐reduction tool in divided societies, with contact being particularly effective during adolescence. A large proportion of evidence, however, draws on cross‐sectional surveys or analytical approaches that do not distinguish between‐ and within‐person effects. In the present research, we address this by exploring the potential of intergroup contact longitudinally on social cohesion–related …

  • R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to mixing: Testing novel emotional mediators of intergroup contact effects

  • The Longitudinal Effects of Intergroup Contact on Youth Attitudes Towards Ethnic Minorities and Constructive Societal Engagement

    Open Access•Christoph Daniel Schaefer, Shelley Mckeown et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Community & Applied…•2024•Cited by: 2•References: 3

    Growing empirical evidence demonstrates that intergroup contact has the potential to reap effects that go beyond prejudice reduction. Much of this evidence, however, is based on findings from cross‐sectional surveys. Building on the relatively smaller body of longitudinal intergroup contact research, we conduct a three‐time point survey amongst youth in Northern Ireland to determine whether frequent and good‐quality interactions with ethnic minor…
