    Subjective Status and Perceived Legitimacy Across Countries
    (John Wiley and Sons, 2020-06-30) Andrighetto, Luca; Croizet, Jean‐claude; Bocian, Konrad; Essien, Iniobong; Batruch, Anatolia; Autin, Frederique; Durante, Federica; Bukowski, Marcin; De Lemus, Soledad; Babincak, Peter; Conway, Paul; Bae, Jaechang; Easterbrook, Matthew J.; Brandt, Mark J.; Dragon, Piotr; Crawford, Jarret T.; Bourguignon, David; Butler, Sarah E.; Butera, Fabrizio; Chryssochoou, Xenia; Becker, Julia C.; Spears, Russell; Bodroža, Bojana; Forgas, Joseph P.; Badea, Constantina; Peker, Müjde; Degner, Juliane; Kuppens, Toon; Zimmerman, Jennifer L.
    The relationships between subjective status and perceived legitimacy are important for understanding the extent to which people with low status are complicit in their oppression. We use novel data from 66 samples and 30 countries (N = 12,788) and find that people with higher status see the social system as more legitimate than those with lower status, but there is variation across people and countries. The association between subjective status and perceived legitimacy was never negative at any levels of eight moderator variables, although the positive association was sometimes reduced. Although not always consistent with hypotheses, group identification, self-esteem, and beliefs in social mobility were all associated with perceived legitimacy among people who have low subjective status. These findings enrich our understanding of the relationship between social status and legitimacy.

    State Anxiety Impairs Attentional Control When Other Sources of Control Are Minimal
    (Taylor & Francis, 2016-04-13) Booth, Robert William; Peker, Müjde
    Research suggests anxiety impairs attentional control; however, this effect has been unreliable. We argue that anxiety’s impairment of attentional control is subtle, and can be obscured by other non-emotional sources of control. We demonstrate this by examining conflict adaptation, an enhancement in attentional control following a trial with high conflict between distracter and target stimuli. Participants completed a Stroop task featuring incongruent (e.g. RED in green font; high-conflict) and control (e.g. +++ in green font; low-conflict) trials. More state-anxious participants showed greater Stroop interference following control trials, but interference was uniformly low following incongruent trials. This suggests state anxiety can impair attention, but other sources of top-down control – such as conflict adaptation – can easily overcome this impairment. This is consistent with recent theories of anxious cognition and shows that anxiety researchers must attend to the dynamics and sources of attentional control.
