抄録	Many scholars and journalists have raised the possibility that the Internet expands　the divide in public opinion and society by polarizing people’s opinions about　political issues. Selective exposure to news and civic information is more likely　to occur on the Internet than in the mass-media-centered environment of the past.This study focused on cyber-racism, such as the “Alt-Right” in the U.S. and “Nettouyoku”in Japan. We examined the relations between the polarization of xenophobic　attitudes and the frequency of exposure to online news on PCs/smartphones. We　used data from online questionnaire surveys conducted in the U.S. and Japan in　2016. The results of quantile regression analyses showed that in Japan exposure　to online news via PCs signifi cantly expanded the polarization of users’ attitudes,　whereas in the U.S. it shifted the attitudes uniformly toward an anti-xenophobic　direction. These findings suggest that social, political, and cultural contexts　infl uence the occurrence of opinion polarization on the Internet.
