Attitudes towards immigrants in the United Kingdom are worsening. It has been posited that these attitudes may reflect covert racial and religious prejudices, particularly among conservatives. To investigate this, two studies examined the role that immigrant race (Black/White; Study 1) and immigrant religion (Muslim/non-Muslim; Study 2) played in immigrant infrahumanization judgements, using political conservatism as a moderating variable. There was a moderating effect of political conservatism; however, it was not in the predicted direction. The results of both studies indicated that immigrant race (Black) and immigrant religion (Muslim) predicted greater infrahumanization when political conservatism was low. Conservatives infrahumanized all immigrants equally (and more than liberals), but liberals were more sensitive to racial/religious biases in their evaluations of immigrants.
英国民众对移民的态度正在恶化。有人提出，这些态度可能反映出隐蔽的种族和宗教偏见，尤其是在保守派中。为了研究这一现象，两项研究考察了移民的种族（黑人/白人；研究 1）和移民的宗教信仰（穆斯林/非穆斯林；研究 2）在将移民非人化判断中的作用，同时将政治保守主义作为一个调节变量。政治保守主义起到了调节作用；然而，其方向并非是预测的方向。两项研究的结果均表明，当政治保守主义程度较低时，移民的种族（黑人）和移民的宗教信仰（穆斯林）会导致更大程度的将移民非人化。保守派同样将所有移民非人化（甚至比自由派更甚），但自由派在评估移民时对种族/宗教偏见更为敏感。
