Relations Among College Students’ Political Party Affiliation, the 2020 Presidential Election, Prejudice, and Attitudes Towards Social Groups, the Black Lives Matters Movement, and COVID-19

We examined interrelations among political affiliation, prejudice, the 2020 presidential election, and attitudes towards the Black Lives Matters (BLM) movement and COVID-19 in undergraduates. Republicans scored higher on measures of prejudice than Democrats did. We also found large differences in the attitudes of Democrats and Republicans towards COVID-19 and BLM.
