Are social justice and sustainability interdependent? If so, how and under what conditions
Sustainability often entails dealing with issues of justice in the distribution of goods and bads, such as resources and restrictions. Applications of justice to concrete situations, including what is deserved and entitled, call for specifications of several issues, like the meaning of “deservingness” and “entitlement” and how justice should be accomplished. This is a key aspect for sustainability, as social arrangements that are not experienced …

A New Look at Individual Differences in Perceptions of Unfairness: The Theory of Maximally Unfair Allocations in Multiparty Situations
Voice and Culture: A Prospect Theory Approach
The present study examines the congruence of individuals' minimum preferred amounts of voice with the prospect theory value function across nine countries. Accounting for previously ignored minimum preferred amounts of voice and actual voice amounts integral to testing the steepness of gain and loss functions explicated in prospect theory, we use curve fitting to show that ratings of procedural justice fit prospect theory's value function specifi…
Handbook of Social Resource Theory: Theoretical Extensions, Empirical Insights, and Social Applications
Our lives as human beings are characterized by production and use of social resources, material (e.g., money and physical possessions) as well as immaterial (such as love, knowledge, and power). Distribution and exchange of these resources are central to individuals’ physical and mental health and quality of life. Over the past four decades, Social Resource Theory (SRT) has evolved to build vital links between social psychology and public policy,…

New and Old Friendships: Attributed Effects of Type and Similarity of Transacted Resources
This study examined outside observers' judgments of the influence of the nature and similarity of transacted resources on the growth of new and old friendships. A number of hypotheses were developed and tested in a questionnaire study in which female subjects responded to vignettes describing exchanges between two male friends. The design was a 2 (particularistic vs. universalistic resources) x 2 (similar vs. dissimilar resources) x 2 (new vs. ol…
Distribution vs . Retribution: The Perceived Justice of the Contribution and Equality Principles for Cooperative and Competitive Relationships
Research on justice in resource allocation has primarily focused on distri bution (the allocation of positive outcomes), while retribution (the allocation of negative outcomes) has been neglected. This study deals with the question whether the equality and contribution principles are differentially evaluated in distribution as compared to retribution On the basis of a model featuring distinctions among four 'behavioral modalities' (positive and n…
Interrelation of Social Resources: Evidence of Pancultural Invariance
Research on the interrelationship among interpersonal resources was conducted in five cultures: those of Israel, the United States, the Philippines, Sweden, and Spanish-speaking Mexican Americans. In spite of differences in language, instrument format, and age of subjects, the results supported the pattern previously hypothesized on theoretical grounds. These results support the notion that interrelationship of resources may be cross-culturally i…

Choice of a Distribution Principle: Crosscultural Evidence on the Effects of Resources
Researchers concerned with resource allocation and distributive justice have paid little attention to the nature of the allocated resource, per se, as a determinant of the criterion according to which distribution takes place. Recently, six studies carried out in Germany, Sweden and the United States have demonstrated the effects of different types of resources upon preference for one of the following three criteria of distribution : contribution…

Distributive Justice: Typology and Propositions
Previous formulations of injustice have left undiscovered the majority of the possible types of justice and injustice and have tended to conceal many of the structural features of the few types that have been recognized. It is here proposed that a specification of the structural properties of injustice types is crucial to making accurate predictions of people's reactions in such situations. By clearly specifying the various comparisons between tw…

Magnitude and Source of Compensation in Two Situations of Distributive Injustice
A structural and propositional elaboration is presented of work in the area of distributive justice. An experiment is designed to test selected hypotheses derived from that elaboration. The main objec tives of the present study are: (1) to examine the amounts of compensation sought by subjects in two situations of injustice (Under/Over and Under/Just); (2) to examine whether the amount of compensation sought will differ in accord with the magnitu…

Reversal in Preference Responses to Two Types of Injustice Situations: A Methodological Contribution to Equity Theory
Equity theorists have frequently attempted to rank order situations of injustice in terms of preference, motivation to redress justice, and/or overt behavioral responses. The present paper deals with some difficulties facing those efforts and proposes a basis for more precise predictions. It is shown, through a structural specification of their various component types (socalled minor types), why a situation which is less preferred than others in …
