Abstract

Das Projekt "Soziale Kohäsion in Krisenzeiten: Corona und anti-asiatischer Rassismus in Deutschland" untersucht, inwieweit sich die COVID-19-Pandemie auf den Rassismus gegen als asiatisch wahrgenommene Menschen in Deutschland ausgewirkt. Das Projekt stellt eine Kooperation zwischen der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, der Freien Universität Berlin und dem Deutschen Zentrum für Integrations- und Migrationsforschung (DeZIM) dar und wurde im Rahmen der Sonderausschreibung "Grand Challenges: Pandemie" von der Berliner Universitätsallianz (BUA) gefördert. Das Projekt folgt einem Mixed-Methods-Design, das zwei quantitative Befragungen ("Außenperspektive" und "Innenperspektive") und eine qualitative Tagebuchstudie umfasst.

Im Rahmen der Studie "External Perspective" wurde in drei Wellen eine quantitative Online-Umfrage mit experimentellen Elementen durchgeführt, um die gesamtgesellschaftliche Perspektive auf die zentrale Forschungsfrage zu untersuchen. Ziel war es sozialpsychologische Faktoren zu untersuchen, die antiasiatrischen Rassismus fördern. Für die Studie wurden in Welle 1 4843 vollständig realisierte Interviews geführt, in Welle 2 3818 und in Welle 3 2603. Die Feldzeit war im November/Dezember 2020 (Welle1), Januar/Februar 2021 (Welle2) und Mai/Juni 2021 (Welle3). Das Studiendesign und die Online-Erhebungsinstrumente wurden vom Projektteam entwickelt. Die praktische Durchführung des Pretests und der Drei-Wellen-Studie wurde von der respondi AG durchgeführt.

The project “Social Cohesion in Times of Crisis: The COVID-19 Pandemic and Anti-Asian Racism in Germany" examined the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic has affected racism against people perceived as Asian in Germany. It was a cooperation project between Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Free University of Berlin, and the German Center for Integration and Migration Research (DeZIM) and was funded as part of the "Grand Challenges: Pandemic" special call by the Berlin University Alliance (BUA). The project followed a mixed-methods design, resulting in two quantiative surveys ("External Perspective" and "Community Survey") and a qualitative diary study.

Within the "External Perspective" study, a quantitative online survey with experimental elements was conducted in three waves to explore the overall societal perspective on the central research question. This study aimed to investigate the social-psychological factors that promote anti-Asian racism. For the study, 4843 fully realized interviews were conducted in wave1, 3818 in wave2, and 2603 in wave3. The field periods was November/December 2020 (wave1), January/February 2021 (wave2) and May/Juni 2021 (wave3). The study design and online survey instruments were developed by the project team. The practical execution of the pretest and the three-wave study was carried out by respondi AG.
