Abstract
Intolerance towards immigrants is often attributed to youth with lower educational attainment who have not been taught democratic principles, have lower cognitive sophistication, and perceive unskilled foreign workers as their direct competitors at the labor market. However, tolerant attitudes are formed of multiple aspects (e.g., economic, cultural, political) and it is possible that only some of them are directly related to education or socioeconomic characteristics of a person. Other aspects might reflect rather broader social and political orientations of young people. The present study aims to (1) test the assumption that young peoples’ tolerance towards immigrants has diverse aspects that cannot be reduced to each other, and (2) explore whether these different aspects of tolerance relate to different sets of characteristics of young people. Data were collected in the Czech Republic as a part of the multinational research project PIDOP (Menezes & Lyons, 2012) using self-report questionnaire survey. Data from approximately 550 participants (age 16-28) who explicitly identified themselves as members of majority society were selected for the analysis.
