abstract = {Based on an integration of socioecological systems and intergroup contact theory, we hypothesized that the context in which intergroup contact takes place moderates its association with attitudes toward refugees. To test this prediction, majority members in Germany reported in three studies (Ntotal = 695) how often they have had positive and negative direct and indirect contact with refugees in different contexts and their attitudes toward refugees. While the association between direct contact and intergroup attitudes was relatively context-independent, the association between indirect contact and attitudes toward refugees strongly depended on context. Indirect contact was more strongly associated with attitudes toward refugees in contexts with close relationships (family and friends) than in contexts with distanced relationships (newspaper and TV).},

abstract = {Threat is one of the most important predictors for attitudes towards refugees and migration. The current research addresses the role of different threat types and emotional reactions in the context of refugee migration with a multi‐method approach. Using qualitative (Study 1, N = 202) and quantitative (Studies 2–4, N = 873) methods, we identified six types of threat that majority group members in Germany experience in the face of refugee migration: Concerns about cultural differences (symbolic threat), financial strain (realistic threat), criminal acts (safety threat), conflicts within society (cohesion threat), increasing xenophobia (prejudice threat), and refugee care (altruistic threat). All these threat types elicited negative emotions and were associated with negative attitudes towards refugees and support for restrictive migration policies. Paradoxically, concerns about refugee care predicted support for restrictive migration policies particularly well (altruistic threat paradox), which can be explained by a lack of emotional responses to this type of threat. Based on these findings, we propose a bidirectional model of intergroup threat.},

abstract = {Die sozialpsychologische Forschung legt nahe, dass die Migration von mehr Menschen nach Deutschland mittel- und längerfristig dazu führen kann, die Vorurteile der deutschen Mehrheitsbevölkerung zu reduzieren. Die aktuelle Flüchtlingssituation in Deutschland kann daher eine Chance sein, bisher fremde Kulturen und Religionen besser zu verstehen. Wichtig dafür ist allerdings, dass es zwischen den unterschiedlichen Gruppen nicht nur zu oberflächlichen Kontakten, sondern zu Freundschaften kommt. Gelingt dies, sehen wir Chancen sowohl für die deutsche Mehrheitsgesellschaft als auch für diejenigen, die zu uns kommen.

Die sozialpsychologische Forschung legt nahe, dass eine vergleichsweise einfache Maßnahme - Kontakt – die Einstellung gegenüber Geflüchteten positiv beeinflusst. Wir fassen die Forschung zu dieser These – der Kontakthypothese – zusammen und zeigen auf, wie die Ergebnisse für den Umgang mit Geflüchteten genutzt werden könnten.
