“…An effective way to measure the cultural and experiential perspectives on political trust is to examine the political trust of immigrants born in a different country from where the local respondents currently reside. Similar to previous scholars' approaches to immigrants' political trust, we can treat immigration as a natural experiment consisting of two groups of people: immigrants who arrived in a new environment after early years of socialization and the locals who were born and raised in their country of origin (Dinesen, 2012; Dinesen & Andersen, 2022). Thus, the locals, who experience only one type of culture throughout their lives, become a natural control group for immigrants who have migrated from one society to another.…”

Research often finds that immigrants tend to have a different profile from locals regarding confidence in the government. Both the origin's and destination's institutional features can influence immigrants' confidence. Scholars have relied on three major models—the cultural‐persistence model, the performance model, and the dual‐reference model—to explain the possible mechanisms behind this difference. Our research builds on previous studies by expanding the country coverage to explore the heterogeneity in immigrants' confidence. Specifically, we focus on how the level of democracy as an institutional factor is associated with immigrants' confidence. Using integrated datasets from the World Value Survey (WVS, 2017–21) and the European Value Study (EVS, 2017–20) and employing a multilevel model, we confirm that immigrants, on average, tend to have a higher level of confidence in the government. However, their confidence is contingent on institutional performance. In countries with high levels of democracy, the disparity in confidence between immigrants and locals becomes more pronounced. Moreover, the institutional performance in the origin country also influences immigrants' confidence in the government of the destination country. Immigrants constantly compare the institutional performance between the two places. Compared to immigrants from countries with a high level of democracy, immigrants from countries with a lower level of democracy tend to have higher confidence in the destination government. Our results provide support for all three major theoretical models.

“…The result shows that in a social context, participation is more likely to be found in IJSSR Page 3072 higher educated youth. However, higher education had no effect on the level of political participation (Dinesen et al 2022;Yani et al, 2022). Meanwhile, Juliani, et al (2021) examined the development of social class constituencies to participate in political activities in Banda Aceh and Meulaboh.…”

This research was conducted to determine the level of political participation of the Kenduri Cinta community as an urban Sufism community in DKI Jakarta. The method used in this research is a quantitative method by distributing questionnaires to the Kenduri Cinta community who were selected by purposive sampling. The independent variables used in this research are political concern; political motivation; political situation and environment; political education; and political orientation. This study explains how these independent variables affect the political participation of the Kenduri Cinta community. The 503 questionnaires obtained were processed by the SPSS application version 25. The Principal Component Analysis method was used in multiple linear regression to analyse how independent variables affect their political participation. The F test result shows that all independent variables simultaneously affect the level of political participation of the Kenduri Cinta community. Meanwhile, the t test result shows that four independent variables are significant and three of them have positive regression coefficients. Interestingly, political motivation has a negative regression coefficient even though it is significant. This means the higher their political motivation, the lower their political participation.
