What a Difference a Shawl Makes

- Perceptions Differ of Woman With and Without a Shawl on her Head -

FLEMINGTON, N.J., Jan. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- A new national study of more
than 600 Americans revealed that a woman wearing a shawl or hijab,
typically worn by Muslim women, is viewed significantly different than thesame woman without the traditional headwear.

The study was conducted by HCD Research, using its mediacurves.com web
site during January 2-3, to determine whether Americans possess different
views of a woman based on whether or not she wears traditional Muslim
headwear.

Participants were divided into two randomly assigned groups. Members of
each group were asked to view one of two separate photos of an attractive
young woman. Neither photo was identified in any way. Each sample was then
asked identical questions about the woman, her age, perceived personality,
activities, and how acceptable she might be as a neighbor.

One-third of participants indicated that they would rather have the
woman with the traditional headwear live in another place, another city,
and maybe out of the U.S., as opposed to living in their neighborhood.
However, a clear majority of participants (89%) reported that the woman
without the shawl would be welcome in their neighborhood.

The woman with the shawl on her head was perceived as somewhat older,
and somewhat better off financially than the woman without the shawl. While
the woman with the shawl was more likely to be a stay at home mother, the
woman without the shawl might be a working married woman.

The woman with the shawl on her head was also viewed as much more
traditional than the woman without the shawl. Participants also indicated
that the woman with the shawl was strict and rigid, a good wife and devoted
mother. She was also perceived as keeping to herself or a tight circle of
people. Conversely, the woman without the shawl was perceived to be lively,
friendly, and humorous. She was also viewed as a person who "always looks
at the bright side" and might even be the life of the party.

Overwhelmingly, both photos of the woman were viewed as being
attractive. However, more people thought the woman with the shawl was
beautiful, and both women were seen as trustworthy.

At the end of the questionnaire, the participants specifically
identified the woman with the shawl on her head as Middle-Eastern in origin
and a Muslim; the woman without the shawl was perceived as an American and
a Catholic (maybe Protestant or Jewish).

PSI TECH INVESTIGATIONS and LAW ENFORCEMENT

Thank you for contacting me regarding the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act (S.1959). I appreciate hearing your views on this matter.

As you may know, S.1959 was introduced by Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) in response to a Senate Homeland Security Committee investigation into domestic radicalization. This bill would establish a National Commission on the Prevention of Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism to examine and report the facts regarding and the causes of violent radicalization, homegrown terrorism, and ideologically based violence in the United States. The commission also would study techniques used by foreign nations to prevent this type of radicalization and terrorism and would report its findings to the president and to Congress.

S.1959 also would direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish a university-based Center of Excellence for the Study of Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism. This center would assist homeland security officials in preventing violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism in the United States.

Some have expressed concern that this bill could allow an over-aggressive government to infringe on civil rights and privacy while attempting to fight terrorism. Proponents of the bill indicate that it would expressly direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to ensure that any activities to prevent ideologically based violence and homegrown terrorism do not violate the constitutional rights, civil rights, and civil liberties of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. S. 1959 has been referred to the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs for further consideration.

While we must give law enforcement and intelligence agencies the tools they need to investigate and prevent terrorist activity, I believe we can and that we must do so under the law and our Constitution protecting the rights of Americans.

I will keep you thoughts in mind as the Committee considers this legislation. Thank you again for contacting me.

Sincerely,
Carl Levin
