Abstract
In Chapter 10, Croucher and colleagues explore COVID-19 prejudice and intergroup contact in 20 nations. The chapter defines prejudice, integrated threat, and intergroup contact. The chapter then outlines how prejudice during the COVID-19 pandemic manifested in each of the 20 nations before comparing prejudice, particularly integrated threat, and intergroup contact in each nation. Results showed that England, Brazil, and Peru were the highest on realistic and symbolic threats. France, Singapore, and India were the lowest on realistic threat, while Kyrgyzstan, Singapore, and India were the lowest on symbolic threat. India, Kyrgyzstan, and Russia were the highest on intergroup contact, while Chile, Peru, and Turkey were the lowest. In addition, symbolic and realistic threats were positively correlated in the combined sample and in each nation. The importance of connections between historical context and the influence of negative intergroup contact is explored.
