TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Perceptions about fleeing religious persecution and entrance to the US JO - Mental health, religion and culture A1 - Kane, Michael A1 - Jacobs, Robin J. SP - 1002 EP - 1014 VL - 20 IS - 10 N2 - Using four vignettes to study attitudes toward religious persecution, a woman or man aged 22 or 68 came to the US with no supporting documentation. A General Linear Model analysed the 12 items for each vignette. Three items were significant among the vignettes: "All immigration policies and laws should be observed even if it means that M may not be granted permission to stay"; "M's gender might be an indicator that M wishes to do harm to the US and its citizens" and "M should be deported because s/he entered the country illegally." Gender and age impact these perceptions.
