Milan Kolundzija Purdue University Calumet Political Tolerance: Examining the Relationship between Education and Political Tolerance INTRODUCTION: Why are some people tolerant while other people are not? This research question sets the foundation for the basic principles of this paper. In today’s progressive society, we recognize fundamental societal changes that force us to evaluate certain groups or actions in specific ways, and develop perceptions on certain matters. Measuring our capability to accept or reject enlightened perceptions on matters that we view negatively, is exceptionally important to investigate. It is important to explore this question, because it will facilitate the exposition of the level of distinctions among certain groups, and help us recognize the biases presented in society, by analyzing the actual information that can be generalized to the overall population. This investigation is extremely pertinent for our democracy, because of the principles that define our constitution. The constitution confers the right to speech, which is an essential element to our democratic foundation; the freedom to hold and express one’s political beliefs is seen as a precondition for a stable and effective democratic system. Political tolerance focuses on the extent to which certain groups are prepared to extend these civil liberties and procedural rights to groups they may perceive negatively. This research paper will investigate political tolerance, and its relationship with education. These two principles will be the two main variables for our research paper. Our main independent variable is the “Highest Year of School Completed” and the dependent variable is the “political tolerance index”. The hypothesis for this research proposes that, higher levels of education lead to higher levels of political tolerance; this indicates a positive relationship, because an increase in one is reflected in gains in the other. It is also important to note that we will also examine other factors that might influence the dependent 26
variable, by including three additional control variables. These three variables are the respondent’s sex, religiosity as measured by how often a respondent attends religious services, and a respondent’s religious denomination. The two main variables for our research are both interval/ratio variables. This means that both variables have values that are based on a scale. The independent variable is based on a scale of educational attainment; the range varies from zero to twenty years of educational attainment. The dependent variable is based on a scale of tolerance level; the scale ranges from a low (0) to a high (15) tolerance level. This tolerance index is based on a combination of fifteen questions that were posed to five groups, including communists, homosexuals, anarchists, and atheists (see Appendix A). The responses to these questions were combined into a tolerance index, and our dependent variable index is based on those responses. The dependent variable has been applied in a way that is both reliable, and valid. The index for our dependent variable was constructed in a manner that recognizes groups from both sides of the political spectrum. Early research on political tolerance, focused on only one side of the political spectrum (leftist groups). In order to ensure that our data was valid, we had to ensure that the index was conceptualized from questions pertaining to both ideological spectrums. The dependent variable in this research paper focuses on questions posed about homosexuals, communisms and atheists. This ensures that all political spectrums have the capability to be recognized equally, and is not prejudiced towards one ideological spectrum; this ensures that our variable is measuring what it is supposed to. Our measurements are also reliable, because they do not include missing values, and are used consistently through all the analysis. The two main variables establish a casual mechanism that can be logically explained. This rests on the notion of associating higher education levels with higher information. I conceive that, the higher a person’s educational attainment, the higher their level of knowledge. This higher level of knowledge, allows them to distinguish new viewpoints and adapt enlightened perceptions on new information that is 27
