Abstract

Objective: The importance of diversity, inclusiveness, and social justice has been increasingly emphasized in different institutions and organizations around the world. The present research adopted an individual differences approach to understanding people's attitudes toward diversity and social justice.

Method: Across three studies (Ns ranging from 371 to 700), participants completed measures of Big Five personality traits, political ideology, and attitudes toward a range of social justice issues (diversity, LGBTQ+, racial relations, abortion).

Results: Higher Openness to Experience and Agreeableness emerged as the most consistent predictors of higher support for social justice. Higher Neuroticism and lower Conscientiousness also predicted support for social justice issues. Furthermore, consistent with the dual-process model of ideology, we found that right-wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation tended to predict social justice support above and beyond Openness to Experience and Agreeableness.

Conclusion: This work provides important insights into the personality predictors of social justice support.

人格、意识形态和对社会正义的态度。

目标：世界各地的不同机构和组织越来越强调多样性、包容性和社会正义的重要性。本研究采用个体差异的方法来理解人们对多样性和社会正义的态度。方法：在三个研究中（n从371到700），参与者完成了五大人格特征、政治意识形态和对一系列社会正义问题（多样性、LGBTQ+、种族关系、堕胎）的态度。结果：较高的经验开放性和亲和性是对社会正义较高支持的最一致的预测因子。较高的神经质和较低的责任心也预示着对社会正义问题的支持。此外，与意识形态的双重过程模型一致，我们发现右翼威权主义和社会支配取向倾向于预测社会正义支持，高于经验开放性和亲和性。结论：本研究为社会公正支持的人格预测因素提供了重要的见解。
