Overall, these studies advance scholarly research on the psychology of social hierarchy by clarifying the interplay between social class, status, and power in relation to SWB.

The link between social class and subjective well-being (SWB) has been an important topic of inquiry, with broad implications for understanding the psychology of social class and the determinants of SWB. Prior research on this topic has focused primarily on the extent to which social class affects SWB and the factors that moderate that impact. We e...
Prior research on social class and SWB has tended to focus on the magnitude of their association, seeking to clarify the extent to which social class shapes SWB. The current research extends prior work by examining the underlying mechanisms that account for the impact of social class on SWB, thus seeking to clarify why social class shapes SWB. In p...
Our findings advance research on the psychology of social hierarchy by demonstrating that status and power represent distinct concerns that underlie the psychological dynamics and consequences of social class. However, there are some important limitations to our current studies, promising ave-nues for future research. First, our studies do not dire...
The current studies contribute to the research on the psychol-ogy of social hierarchy. In particular, they highlight the value of unpacking the multi-dimensional nature of social class and separately examining the distinct yet simultaneous mechanisms that ultimately shape its consequences. Moreover, this research provides deeper insight into prior ...
