Abstract

Abstract This study investigates the system justifying role through belief in a just world (BJW), testing whether institutional trust is related to this belief and whether this relationship depends on specific socioeconomic and political factors. A research with 381 university students, aged 18 to 64 years (M = 22.4, SD = 6.25), explored their BJW and their degree of institutional trust. Regression and moderation analyses revealed that BJW relates to institutional trust only in left-wing and with lower income participants. We believe this occurs because they need more an ideology that justifies the system to trust the institutions. This phenomenon can prevent these people from pursuing structural social changes since the system is now seen as fair.

公正的世界，对制度的信任以及社会经济和政治的节制

摘要本研究通过公正世界信念(BJW)考察制度的正当性作用，检验制度信任是否与公正世界信念相关，以及这种关系是否依赖于特定的社会经济和政治因素。通过对381名18 ~ 64岁大学生(M = 22.4, SD = 6.25)的调查，探讨了他们的BJW和机构信任程度。回归和调节分析显示，BJW仅在左翼和低收入参与者中与制度信任有关。我们认为，之所以会出现这种情况，是因为他们需要更多的意识形态来证明制度是合理的，从而信任这些机构。这种现象可能会阻止这些人追求结构性的社会变革，因为现在的制度被认为是公平的。
