Abstract

The influx of refugees into Germany continued to dominate the public debate in February. Results from the February 2016 SOEP survey of public opinion on refugees in Germany show that slightly over one third of German adults see more opportunities than risks in the influx of refugees, while around half take the opposite view. In February 2016, around one third of respondents reported having donated money or resources to help refugees, and 39% reported the intention to continue doing so in the future. As in the preceding month, around one tenth of respondents reported having been active in efforts to help and support refugees. Respondents who show willingness to help refugees include not only individuals who view the refugee influx in a positive light, but also those with ambivalent or even critical viewpoints. In February, the percentage of respondents who viewed the refugee influx in a positive light increased slightly over January.
