| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research is to investigate a mechanism forming perceptions that immigrants threaten native citizens. Especially, it focuses on an influence of the media. I conducted public opinion survey while I conducted the analysis of framing of "foreigners" in newspapers which are most broadly read in the areas where respondents of the public opinion survey live. I combined these two data and analyzed the impact of the framing of "foreigners" of a newspaper on threat perceptions of citizens living in the area where it is widely read. As a result, I found that levels of threat perceptions differ according to the framing of "foreigners" in each city. If a newspaper emphasizes economic positive impacts of inflow of foreigners, people are less likely to perceive threats caused by foreigners. However, the impacts do not differ according to whether one actually reads that newspaper, which suggests social positions of foreigners in each area, not the media, affects threat perceptions.
