Popis: In this study, we are interested in assessing young adults' awareness of their own and others' economic status. We will survey undergraduate students at a university with a disproportionate amount of students from high-income backgrounds. We plan to assess the extent to which students are aware of their own economic status compared to others and of the economic backgrounds of students in their community more generally. We will also test whether perceptions of their own economic status relate to awareness of inequality and support for policies to reduce inequality. Note that this study is exploratory and contains many measures of one's own and others' perceived economic status. We intend to fully explore these data but are pre-registering our data collection plan to document our general hypotheses and to maximize transparency.
