    ‘They’re just not all the same’ – Perceived differences between refugee groups based on their geographical origin (Study 1)

    No full text
    The social perception and evaluation of refugees is not uniform, but rather differentiated along dimensions such as flight motive, geographical origin, or religion (Bansak et al., 2016; Kotzur et al., 2017, 2019). Existing knowledge about the social perception of refugee groups, especially based on their geographical origin, was mostly generated in the aftermath of the 2015/16 refugee migration. Consequently, it fails to account for the recent large-scale refugee migration in Europe caused by the war instigated by Russia against Ukraine which started in February, 2022. What is more, the existing research usually operates in the narrow limits of distinct theoretical approaches like the Stereotype Content Model (Fiske et al., 2002; Kotzur et al., 2019), thereby missing the opportunity to integrate constructs from different social-psychological research traditions. We therefore aim at investigating differences in social perceptions and evaluations between refugees from Ukraine (having only recently arisen as a relevant refugee group), refugees from Syria (being the largest refugee group in Germany associated with refugee migration wave in 2015/16) and refugees from Eritrea (being one of the largest refugee groups from the African continent in Germany). We compare these refugee groups on the dimensions of warmth and competence (Fiske et al., 2002; Friehs et al., 2022), emotions and behavioural intentions (Cuddy et al., 2007), perceived threat (Landmann et al., 2019), perceived flight motives and perception of diversity (Kauff et al., 2019)
