While the predominantly Muslim host communities initially expressed sympathy for the refugees, the prolonged stay substantially affected their livelihoods, and public sentiment gradually deteriorated. Using an incentivized joy-of-destruction game, we found that as many as 58% of the hosts paid to reduce support for the refugees. Our regression analysis revealed that the more exposed hosts paid significantly more but were not more likely to express negative opinions toward the refugees. This contrast indicates that the incentivized experiment elicited real (not cosmetic) hostility toward the outgroup.}, pages = {1--41}, title = {From Hospitality to Hostility : Impact of the Rohingya Refugee Influx on the Sentiments of Host Communities}, year = {2023} }
