Authoritarian Youth : Bidirectional Effects Between Authoritarianism, National Identification, and Political Participation Among Czech Youth
Original language description
Young citizens’ political participation can fundamentally affect the functioning of democracies. Therefore, this study examined patterns of political participation among the youth. Specifically, the focus was on authoritarianism, national identification, and their presumed bidirectional relations with youth participation. Structural equation modeling of data from the two-wave longitudinal questionnaire of Czech adolescents and young adults (age 15–25; N = 1346) was employed, differentiating between older adolescents and young adults. The model also included political alienation and internal political efficacy as additional predictors. Results showed that higher authoritarianism was associated with decreased participation and that this association became more apparent with age. National identification was only associated with lower prosocial participation. Political alienation and internal political efficacy were not associated with youth participation but were reciprocally affected by authoritarianism and youth participation. Furthermore, results suggested a possible beneficial effect of online participation, as it was associated with lower authoritarianism and political alienation and higher internal political efficacy.
