Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Scholars have demonstrated that symbolic racism, or the belief that members of certain racial and ethnic minority groups do not live up to widely held American values such as hard work, can help to explain negative attitudes toward immigration among white Americans. They have not, however, tested whether such negative attitudes toward specific ethnic groups explain opposition to all immigration or only opposition to increased admittance of that particular group. Additionally, there has not been research on the degree to which any relationship between symbolic racism and opposition to immigration for one or all groups is consistent across ethnic groups. We test whether negative attitudes toward members of different ethnic groups correlate white American’s attitudes toward group specific and general immigration levels in an analysis of responses to the 2000 General Social Survey. Initial results suggest that white respondents who hold symbolically racist views of Hispanics are more likely to oppose increased immigration among all groups, but symbolic racism directed at Asians correlates only with opposition to immigration of that group.
