====The Nature of Social Dominance Orientation====
*'''Social Dominance Orientation (SDO)''': “the degree to which individuals desire and support group-based hierarchy and the domination of “inferior” groups by “superior” groups” (Sidanius and Pratto, Chapter 2).
*SDO is affected by four factors:
**One’s membership in a group and strength of identification in that membership
***We should expect dominants or those who identify with dominants have higher SDO than subordinates or those who identify with subordinates.
**Socialization factors (ex. Education, faith, experience in war)
***People are born with different temperamental dispositions
****The more empathy you have, the less SDO
**Gender (male, female)
***'''Invariance hypothesis''': Men will have higher SDO than women
***This is NOT JUST because men occupy dominant social roles. The authors argue there are reasons independent of this.
