MONTOYA-LOZANO, Mar et al. Spanish adaptation of the Support for Economic Inequality Scale (S-SEIS). Psicothema [online]. 2023, vol.35, n.3, pp.310-318. Epub 13-Nov-2023. ISSN 1886-144X. https://dx.doi.org/10.7334/psicothema2022.226.
Background:
This study presents the adaptation and evidence of the validity of the Spanish version of the Support for Economic Inequality Scale (S-SEIS). This measure evaluates people's tendency to have positive attitudes toward economic inequality.
Method:
Two correlational studies were conducted, one exploratory (N = 619) and one confirmatory (N = 562).
Results:
S-SEIS showed good reliability in both studies. The factorial analysis showed a one-factor structure in Study 1 that was confirmed in Study 2. We also found a relationship between S-SEIS and other extensively used measures of attitudes toward inequality, such as intolerance toward inequality. S-SEIS positively correlates with belief in a just world, social dominance orientation (SDO), economic system justification (ESJ), institutional trust, and perceived democracy; it correlates negatively with intolerance toward inequality, perceived inequality, perceived warmth/competence of people in poverty and support for redistribution.
Conclusions:
The current research findings suggest that S-SEIS is a valuable instrument for evaluating the support of economic inequality in Spanish samples.
