Notes: We recode the variables such that high values correspond to positive attitudes toward immigrants. All outcome variables are normalized by the mean and the standard deviation of the variable for the control group (Kling et al. 2007). In other words, the coefficients represent the effect size in terms of standard deviations away from the mean. The outcome in columns 1 and 4 is available for both rounds of the survey; outcomes in the other columns are available for only one round. Robust standard errors are displayed in parentheses.
