Abstract
In this study we explore how endorsing binding moral foundations and the perception of realistic and symbolic threat mediate the relationship between need for cognitive closure (NCC) and prejudice against migrants in Italy. We hypothesized that individuals with a high NCC are more prone to endorse binding moral foundations and also to perceive high realistic and symbolic threats and, consequently, they are more prejudiced against migrants. Data were collected through a questionnaire (N = 351). Results explain the relationship between need for cognitive closure and prejudice against migrants through a complex sequence of mediation effects of binding moral foundations and perceived threats.
