Περίληψη: Does the perception of Jewish financial success trigger antisemitism? In three studies using both qualitative and quantitative methods, we found that the answer in China was no. In Study 1, we examined Chinese popular discourse on Jewish businesses and found that Jewish managers were seen as models to emulate for both instrumental success and ethical conduct. In Study 2, a survey of Chinese white-collar workers showed a similar pattern: Managerial behaviors perceived as Jewish were rated as more profitable and ethical than those perceived as more Chinese. In Study 3, through an investment-scenario experiment, Chinese participants rated businesses with managers described as adhering to Chinese views of Jewish managerial behavior as more profitable and ethical, and these evaluations were mediated by the extent to which participants perceived the behavior as "Jewish." These results offer insights into how cultural context shapes perceptions of Jewish financial success as either a source of envy or of emulation.
