摘要

虽然当今大多数美国人都认为择优录取是公平的,但我们认为,人们是否了解他人生活中存在的社会经济优势和劣势会影响他们的看法。通过五项研究(N = 3,318),我们发现人们能够将申请人背景中的社会经济不平等与他们对特定择优选拔过程和结果的公平性的评价联系起来。当了解到一个申请者的成长环境优越,而另一个申请者的成长环境不利时,自由派和保守派都会认为,原本相同的择优程序和结果的公平性会大大降低。重要的是,了解到起初的不平等会使人们更加支持促进组织中社会经济多样性的政策。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA,保留所有权利)。

Can selecting the most qualified candidate be unfair? Learning about socioeconomic advantages and disadvantages reduces the perceived fairness of meritocracy and increases support for socioeconomic diversity initiatives in organizations.

While the majority of Americans today endorse meritocracy as fair, we suggest that these perceptions can be shaped by whether or not people learn about the presence of socioeconomic advantages and disadvantages in others' lives. Across five studies (N = 3,318), we find that people are able to attach socioeconomic inequalities in applicants' backgrounds to their evaluation of the fairness of specific merit-based selection processes and outcomes. Learning that one applicant grew up advantaged-while the other grew up disadvantaged-leads both liberals and conservatives to believe that otherwise identical merit-based procedures and outcomes are significantly less fair. Importantly, learning about starting inequalities leads to greater support for policies that promote socioeconomic diversity in organizations.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Experimental Psychology: General publishes articles describing empirical work that bridges the traditional interests of two or more communities of psychology. The work may touch on issues dealt with in JEP: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, JEP: Human Perception and Performance, JEP: Animal Behavior Processes, or JEP: Applied, but may also concern issues in other subdisciplines of psychology, including social processes, developmental processes, psychopathology, neuroscience, or computational modeling. Articles in JEP: General may be longer than the usual journal publication if necessary, but shorter articles that bridge subdisciplines will also be considered.
