摘要

COVID-19大流行暴露了原有的社会断层,给群体间关系带来了巨大压力,并引发了仇外情绪。利用现实冲突理论(RCT)和社会认同方法(SIA),我们的研究考察了公共分配COVID-19变体疫苗如何影响当地公民和农民工之间的动态,以及在什么条件下。一个关键的观点是,有利于移民工人的有价值的资源分配可能会增加当地公民对现实威胁的感知,这可能导致地位高的当地公民对地位低的移民的消极态度和行为加剧,而对这种资源分配的更高的公平感知可能会减轻这些消极态度和行为。为了调查这些预测,我们采用了一种跨文化的方法,并在一个亚洲国家(马来西亚;N = 197)和一个西方国家(澳大利亚;n = 210)。我们操纵了疫苗优先级,评估了当地公民对疫苗优先级的现实威胁和公平性的看法,并测量了他们对农民工的态度反应。我们的研究结果表明,对移民有利的疫苗优先排序的感知不公平,而不是现实的威胁,对当地公民对农民工的看法产生了负面影响。我们在群体间关系的背景下讨论这些发现的含义。

Us or them: How COVID-19 vaccine priority influences perceptions of local-migrant worker relations

The COVID-19 pandemic laid bare pre-existing societal fault lines, placing immense strain on intergroup relations and giving rise to xenophobic sentiments. Drawing on Realistic Conflict Theory (RCT) and Social Identity Approach (SIA), our study examined how the public allocation of COVID-19 variant vaccines could influence the dynamics between local citizens and migrant workers, and under what conditions. One key idea is that valued resource distribution that favour migrant workers may produce increased perceptions of realistic threats among local citizens which could lead to exacerbated negative attitudes and behaviours of high-status local citizens towards low-status migrants, whereas higher fairness perceptions of such resource distributions could potentially mitigate these negative attitudes and behaviours. To investigate these predictions, we employed a cross-cultural approach and conducted an experiment in both an Asian country (Malaysia; N = 197) and a Western country (Australia; N = 210). We manipulated vaccine prioritisation, assessed local citizens' perceptions of the realistic threat and fairness of vaccine prioritisation, and measured their attitudinal responses towards migrant workers. Our results showed that the perceived unfairness in migrant-favouring vaccine prioritisation, rather than realistic threat, negatively affected local citizens' perceptions of the migrant workers. We discuss the implications of these findings in the context of intergroup relations.
