In this paper, we aim to investigate whether or not these two factors (BJW and ingroup identification) have an interaction effect on each of two mechanisms that reduce the threa...

An influence source, either same-gender (lower threat) or different-gender (higher threat), confronted participants with the reass...

From Prejudice to Discrimination: The Legitimizing Role of Perceived Threat Ind...

In the first study, using representative samples in 21 European countries (N¼36 566) from European Social Survey (2002), we showed that the relationship between prejudice and opposition to immigration was more strong...
