Description
Summary:Provides a comprehensive summary of what is known from the New Zealand Attitudes and Values Study (NZAVS) about attitudes toward Muslims among New Zealanders, as well as prejudice in New Zealand more generally. Describes the distribution of thermometer ratings of warmth toward Muslims annually from 2012 onward, and compares these with thermometer ratings of a range of other groups that are also tracked. Presents a regression model documenting the extent to which a broad range of demographics and aspects of personality are associated with low levels of warmth toward Muslims, and a parallel model assessing warmth ratings toward immigrants as a comparison. Includes a series of growth curve models outlining the relative level and rate of change over time in warmth toward Muslims and other groups from 2012-2018.
