Examining the Cultural and Institutional Explanation of Generalized Trust Using Migration as a Natural Experiment (2013, result): “It is especially worth noting that income inequality does not have a significant impact on trust of immigrants in Western Europe as this runs counter to most previous research not restricted to immigrants including the analysis by Hooghe et al.
