Abstract

Affective polarisation has been gaining relevance in the study of political behaviour. In this descriptive research, we expose different approaches to affective polarisation in Catalonia, studying factors that generate impact on the population feelings, as well as carrying out quantitative analysis on the effect of this phenomenon, grouped in subcategories, on the vote and support for secession in the catalan territory in the year 2022. The results show the weight of identity factors in affective polarisation and how feelings towards diverse collectives impacts effectively in this aspects; especially to the vote and independence support, even though there are other factors. However, concordant relationships are found between politic conflict dimensions and feelings towards analogous groups to them; establishing affective polarisation as something subject to specific conflict dimensions.
