SUMMARY:Vortrag: „COVID-19 Health Certification Reduces Outgroup Bias: Evidence from a Conjoint Experiment in Japan“ (Yoshiaki Kubo\, Isamu Okada)
DESCRIPTION:Psychological theorem supposes that serious threats cause negative attitudes by ingroups to outgroups\, i.e.\, outgroup bias. For example\, the behavioral immune system theory claims a chain reaction from infectious threats to outgroup bias as the human defense against pathogens. However\, what reduces outgroup bias from threats to health caused by a pandemic is unknown. This study deals with this missing argument by focusing on threats to health by COVID-19\, which have caused negative attitudes toward racial/ethnic groups\, immigrants\, or tourists worldwide. In particular\, this study provides evidence that health certifications to prove immunity or negativity for COVID-19 contribute to reducing the outgroup bias. Using a discrete choice experiment with a randomized conjoint design in Japan\, we investigated public attitudes toward inbound travelers entering the country\, including foreigners\, immigrants\, or tourists. We found that those inbound travelers carrying a health certificate have a higher probability of being admitted entry by host residents: a vaccination certificate by 31 percent and a negative certificate by 27 percent. These effects are the same size as those travelers undergoing self-isolation. Our results demonstrate that health certifications can mitigate outgroup bias among ingroups facing threats to health by COVID-19. We anticipate our study to support the introduction of a vaccine passport\, which is often denied in terms of inequality between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. At the same time\, especially for unvaccinated travelers\, this study suggests that a negative certificate can be an alternative to a vaccine passport. \nYoshiaki Kubo is an Associate Professor at the Department of Law\, Politics and International Relations\, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences\, University of the Ryukyus\, Japan\, and; Joint Researcher at Research Institute for Humanity and Nature\, Japan.
