Dependent Variable: Allow many/few immigrants TV watching (total average time) (6.24)** TV watching, news/ politics 0.036(3.94)** Newspaper read. (tot. aver. time) (4.57)** Newspaper read. (politics) 0.13(8.01)**

Dependent Variable: Allow many/few immigrants Most people can be trusted 0.107(15.79)** Most people try to be fair 0.040(5.74)**

Future Work Characterize in more depth differences in attitudes towards immigrants, minorities, and refugees in different countries in the European area, as well as the US, Australia, and Canada Develop and evaluate alternative hypotheses about the sources of these differences. Develop an overarching model of attitudinal responses that recognizes the intertemporal and dynastic dimension of opinion formation. Analyse the way opinion formation interacts with the economic and political process.
