Social Sciences, 2024, vol. 13, issue 11, 1-13

Abstract: This study empirically examines the relationship between education and tolerance for sexual minorities. The empirical results provide support for the positive effect of education on tolerance towards sexual minorities, with this effect being particularly pronounced in high-income countries. This study makes a contribution to the literature by employing robust methodologies. This empirical analysis utilizes country-level panel data and the concept of institutionalized tolerance, and employs various panel regression and machine learning techniques.
