WP7: Childhood predictors

Childhood predictors of discriminatory behaviour in adulthood

WP7 identifies key childhood experiences that shape discriminatory attitudes and behaviours in adulthood. Combining longitudinal registry data with experimental methods, the project examines how early-life intergroup interactions and other formative experiences influence later behaviour. It extends prior CEPDISC work by Kruse (2024) by analysing a broader range of social groups and contexts, and by assessing both attitudes and actual behaviour using registry-based outcomes.
