The Asian community, in particular, faced severe xenophobia globally, with blame often unfairly attributed to them for the COVID-19 pandemic. The present study focuses on factors associated with increased blame toward Asian immigrants by host nationals in the United States and Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of a research project on intergroup relations, data were collected from 233 native-born Americans and 218 native-born Canadians. Multiple regression analyses indicated that national identity and country of residence together explained seven percent of the variability in blaming Asian immigrants for the pandemic. Higher national identity was related to lower blaming of Asian immigrants. Conservative sociopolitical views were also associated with increased blaming. Additionally, we found a moderating effect of COVID-related worry on the relationship between country of residence and blaming Asian immigrants for the COVID-19 pandemic, suggesting that the relationship between the country of residence of the participants and the blame they place on Asian immigrants was influenced by their worry about the COVID-19 pandemic. These findings could be valuable in shaping public health communication strategies in future health crises, particularly in terms of ways to address and mitigate discriminatory discourse against minorities and immigrants.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48216,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Intercultural Relations","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 102280"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145004498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While previous research suggests that a polycultural identity—the integration and blending of multiple diverse cultural elements into the self—is associated with positive personal and intercultural outcomes, the mechanisms underlying these benefits remain unclear. We theorised that polycultural identity functions as an adaptive response to super-diversity, emerging among individuals who demonstrate flexibility in perspective-taking, tolerance for contradiction, and a desire to broaden the self through social interactions. Data from a diverse Australian sample recruited via Prolific (<em>N</em> = 483) supported a path model in which polycultural identity mediated the relationship between two malleability-related variables and two well-being outcomes: <em>flourishing</em> and a <em>psychologically rich life</em>. This pattern suggests that polycultural identity may indeed represent a form of positive adaptation to diversity. We also examined links between polycultural identity and aspects of the self, specifically, <em>true self, self-consistency, self-concept clarity,</em> and <em>personal identity strength</em>. The findings indicate that polycultural identity may prioritise enhanced self-understanding and personal agency over a stable, clearly defined, and immutable sense of self.

Alongside the post-pandemic academic labor market crises and geopolitical uncertainties, this study adopted the concepts of global brain drain and gain, as well as transnational academic capital mobility, and further mapped intercultural capital as a coping mechanism. Accordingly, the study promoted scholarly conversations about these primary themes: (a) motivational factors for relocation: global academic social networks and family reasons; (b) positionalities as GTSs: strategic leaders via global political savvy and academic expertise; (c) diagnosing the current brain circulation: ambiguous loss in the in-between space; and (d) survival strategy and outlooks: loyalty and intercultural awareness in institutional capacity. The most overarching findings revealed that while participants positioned themselves as GTSs in China, they also felt anxious and ambivalent about the current global brain circulation phenomenon, as they witnessed an increasing number of academic turnovers. Nevertheless, they emphasized the social importance of fostering intercultural awareness and building mutual understanding as essential elements of sustainable academic careers in Sino-foreign relations. Therefore, this study critiqued structural problems of the current brain circulation phenomenon and offered implications for establishing coping mechanisms for IFMs in China via intercultural training and career counseling.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48216,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Intercultural Relations","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 102278"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144997137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While theoretical arguments have been developed to explain this triple jeopardy, empirical research on specific correlates of newly-arrived adolescents’ loneliness experiences is scarce. This study aims to address this gap by examining the role of five different school-related factors —student support, teacher support, interpersonal trust within the school context, discrimination by peers and discrimination by teachers—, given the significance of the educational setting for newly-arrived adolescents. Survey data from 678 newly-arrived adolescents (aged 11–20 years) from 32 schools offering reception education in Flanders were used. Multilevel logistic regression was employed to analyse three loneliness outcomes: general, social, and emotional loneliness. The findings indicate that newly-arrived adolescents who felt more supported by their peers and teachers, and who reported higher levels of trust in them, felt less lonely. Additionally, newly-arrived adolescents who encountered discriminatory practices by their peers and teachers were more vulnerable to all types of loneliness than those who did not experience any discrimination. One exception was found: there were no significant differences in emotional loneliness between newly-arrived adolescents who experienced frequent discrimination from their peers and those who did not face any peer discrimination. In sum, this study highlights that schools providing reception education can act as significant actors in addressing the triple vulnerability of newly-arrived adolescents to loneliness. They underscore the need for targeted interventions within schools offering reception education to foster supportive and inclusive environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48216,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Intercultural Relations","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 102294"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145096221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the results of the Bolck–Croon–Hagenaars approach, patterns characterized by higher levels of multicultural acceptance were associated with more favorable attitudes toward immigrants.
