Scale between 0 (no influence) and 100 (explains all). Values are rounded to the nearest integer (better for reading and comparison) and may not sum to 100% (per row, due to rounding error). Respondents per row, beginning with “Cross-national” and ending with “Muslim immigration,” are as follows: N = 71, 62, 64, 60, 51, 52, 48, 46, 55, 49, and 46. The three most important factors per row are printed in bold. The bottom row (“Single average”) is the average rating across all single countries, regions, and groups (excluding cross-national general ratings in the first row).
