Table 6. Summary of exploratory regression models.
| Measure | Predictors in best-fitting model | Model fit |
|---|---|---|
| Individualism | Cultural group: 1st gen > non-migrant**; Occupation: graduate > school-leaver*; Print media use*** | F(5,201) = 6.99, p < .001, adj-R2 = .13 |
| Collectivism | Cultural group: 1st gen > non-migrant***, 1st gen > 2nd gen***; Sex: female > male*; Religiosity*; Family contact* | F(5,262) = 21.11, p < .001, adj-R2 = .27 |
| Closeness | 2nd gen x age*; 1st gen x age*** | Χ2(5) = 29.55, p < .001, pseudo-R2 = .03 |
| Self-enhancement | 1st gen x female x years of education* | F(11,268) = 2.58, p = .004, adj-R2 = .06 |
| Holistic categorisation | Cultural group: 1st gen > non-migrant*; Occupation: graduate < school-leaver*; UK TV viewing* | F(5,202) = 3.62, p = .004, pseudo-R2 = .08 |
| Dispositional attribution | Age*; Occupation: graduate > school-leaver* | F(5,207) = 3.12, p = .009, adj-R2 = .05 |
| Situational attribution | 2nd gen x languages**; 1st gen x languages** | F(5,279) = 7.79, p < .001, adj-R2 = .11 |

***p < .001
Where best-fitting model includes interactions, only highest-level significant interactions are listed, not single predictors (even if significant). ‘languages’ = number of languages spoken. 1st gen = 1st generation British Bangladeshi, 2nd gen = 2nd generation British Bangladeshi.
