What is it about?
Ethnocentrism and anymosity have different antecedents: Age and education were related to ethnocentrism but not animosity, while gender was related to animosity and not ethnocentrism. Patriotism was a common predictor of both constructs. Consequences of ethnocentrism and anymosity are different too: Consumer ethnocentrism predicted willingness to buy and product judgments, while animosity only predicted willingness to buy.
