While frequently used, the distinction suffers from a number of shortcomings that have hitherto been devoted little attention to. This dissertation aims to contribute to fill this research gap by systematically addressing these pitfalls. Notably, it does not abandon the binary distinction as such, but aims to further refine it. Thoroughly revisiting the nationalism-patriotism distinction, it synthesises the field's two predominant research traditions, i.e. the work of Kosterman and Feshbach (1989) in the U.S. and the one of Blank and Schmidt (2003) in Germany, that have not been brought into dialogue. In so doing, and engaging with research on attachment, it calls for a more nuanced triad of attachments: nationalism, that revolves around the nation; patriotism, that refers to the homeland; and democratic patriotism with democracy as its object of attachment. In line with this triad, it introduces a novel three-factor measurement model that has been validated in three studies in Germany. Overall, the dissertation underlines the need to approach ambiguous and complex concepts such as nationalism and patriotism in a more theoretically consistent way before operationalizing them in a rigorous manner.}, language = {en} } @techreport{Heinrich2018, author = {Heinrich, Horst-Alfred}, title = {Test of different structural equation models describing the relationship between nationalism, patriotism, and anti-immigration attitudes: documentation of an empirical study}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:739-opus4-5502}, pages = {31 Seiten}, year = {2018}, abstract = {This paper aims at the documentation of the results of a study dealing with the relationship between in-group and out-group attitudes. The research enquires into the question whether nationalistic, patriotic, and anti-immigration attitudes are only correlated with each other or whether there is a causal relationship. The presentation of the Mplus output together with the correlation and covariance matrices will allow the readers to control the results and, if they want to do it, to test alternative models.}, subject = {Nationalismus}, language = {en} }
