“Comparing Stereotypes across Racial and Partisan Lines: a Study in Affective Polarization”, 2021-06-28 (; similar):
The past few decades have witnessed increasing levels of hostility among partisans, a phenomenon labeled affective polarization.
This study examines how partisan affective polarization compares to the racial divide. We examine these differences by looking at ratings of partisan, ideological and racial outgroups on intelligence, morality, trustworthiness, hard work and patriotism.
We find that individuals tend to rate their partisan and ideological ingroups more positively. More importantly, we find that the difference in ratings of ingroups and outgroups is larger for partisanship and ideology compared to racial groups. [ie. political prejudice > racial prejudice]
