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, selfesteem, 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.}, organization = {Center for Intercultural and Indigenous Research 15110006}, organization = {H2020 European Research Council 759320}, organization = {Center for Social Conflict and Cohesion Studies 15130009}, organization = {Comision Nacional de Investigacion Cientifica y Tecnologica (CONICYT) CONICYT FONDECYT 1161371}, organization = {Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness PSI2016-79971-P}, organization = {Grant Agency of the Czech Republic 20-01214S}, organization = {Institute of Psychology, Czech Academy of Sciences RVO: 68081740}, publisher = {Wiley}, keywords = {Legitimacy}, keywords = {Social identity}, keywords = {Status}, keywords = {System justification}, title = {Subjective status and perceived legitimacy across countries}, doi = {10.1002/ejsp.2694}, author = {Brandt, Mark J. and de Lemus Martín, Soledad}, }
