GARCIA-CASTRO, Juan Diego. Beliefs About System Justification In Costa Rica: Social Class, Gender And Aggression. InterSedes [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.35, pp.121-150. ISSN 2215-2458.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/isucr.v17i35.25766.

An investigation on system justification and social classes in Costa Rica is presented. Participants were 150 people (M = 33.6, SD = 10.4), men and women of working age from Upala, a border town with Nicaragua. It explores the relationship between the participants’ life satisfaction, political orientation, system justification, and tendency towards collective action; and their social class, aggression tendency, and different socio-demographic variables and system justification ideologies. The results indicated a relationship between social class and system justification and different processes by gender. This investigation is a contribution to the psychosocial research on the justification of the capitalist system in one of the populations that suffer it the most.
