| Summary: | Prejudice is an old phenomenon that has persisted for years. In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, prejudice towards the Chinese has been prevalent primarily due to the origins of the virus. Socio-historical origins of the relationship between Chinese and Filipinos are discussed along with the incidents of anti-Chinese prejudice that happened during the pandemic. Besides the Chinese, Chinese-Filipinos also experience prejudice especially because of the pandemic and the way Filipinos perceive Chinese-Filipinos. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the issue of prejudice against Chinese-Filipinos continues and this leads to the purpose behind this study. This study aims to grasp the ideology behind the said prejudice and examine it in the local perspective. Using the dual-process motivation model (DPM) of ideology and prejudice, the study strives to identify the relationship between how right-wing authoritarianism, COVID-19 anxiety, social dominance orientation, and ethnic competitiveness motivate Chinese-Filipino prejudice in the context of the pandemic. The researchers tested these variables against Filipino college students nationwide that do not have any Chinese relatives to the 4th degree.
