Abstract

This article investigates the ideological preferences of Chinese undergraduate students in relation to where they attend university. A total of 101 survey responses are collected, and propensity score matching is used to filter the raw data. Regression results of ideological preferences on different dimensions using the ordinary least squares method reveal suggestive evidence that studying in Hong Kong SAR will significantly liberalise the ideological preferences of Chinese mainland students in the political, economic, and cultural dimensions.
