“…Furthermore, the portrayal of refugees as victims is a very dominant media frame in prior studies (Chouliaraki & Zaborowski, 2017; Greussing & Boomgaarden, 2017; Heidenreich et al, 2019; Van Gorp, 2005), but victimization representation prevents refugees from being seen as full-fledged individuals and implies that their legitimacy can only be recognized with proof of suffering, which in turn leads to refugees feeling inferior, and it becomes difficult for refugees to show their capabilities and resilience (Smets et al, 2019). The stereotypes embedded in this victim presentation influence social representations and practices (Machillot, 2012), as this study shows it connects to anti-immigrant sentiment. Thus, more realistic media representations are needed to portray refugees as legitimate and dignified individuals.…”

This study investigates the effects of exposure to news frames on attitudes toward Syrian refugee admissions and anti-immigrant sentiment. Findings show that framing Syrian refugees, ranging from benefits, victims to a security threat did invoke changes of attitudes toward admitting Syrian refugees. Participants reading a benefit frame story expressed more favorable opinions on accepting Syrian refugees than participants in the threat frame condition. In contrast to the extant literature, arguing victim frame enhances positive attitudes, the findings suggested that participants, who were exposed to a victim frame story yielded stronger anti-immigrant sentiment than participants who read a threat frame story. These findings advance scholarship on media framing of refugees and its effect on anti-immigrant sentiment and have important refugee admission policy and advocacy implications.
