Technological change is causing major transformations in the nature of work and the labor market. As a result, there is a growing interest in studying the relationship between automation of jobs and attitudes toward universal basic income as a potential solution to address the socioeconomic challenges posed by technological advancements. Hence, the exploration of a universal basic income and other innovative ways to restructure the welfare state has become crucial in navigating the complexities of the digital economy and automation. Drawing on data from the Barometer of Political Opinion of Catalonia, Spain, our study reveals nuances insights. We observe that individuals facing a high risk of job automation have a negative impact on support for selectively targeted, means-tested basic income. In addition, while concerns about technological displacement are prevalent, there is no clear correlation between perceived and objective risk of automation-induced job loss. Contextual information about automation also does not significantly influence support for universal basic income scheme or a guaranteed citizenship income. However, individuals who perceive their work tasks as automatable are more inclined to endorse a universal basic income, highlighting the complex interplay between technological change, socioeconomic perceptions, and attitudes toward welfare policy.
