“…Viewing life as zero-sum is associated with many adverse consequences, including reduced trust, lower subjective wellbeing, diminished faith in democracy, and a general sense that the social system is illegitimate and unjust (Piotrowski et al, 2019; Różycka-Tran et al, 2015, 2018, 2019a, 2019b; Shin & Kim, 2018). Among other things, zero-sum thinking has been linked to various forms of prejudice, including a belief that immigrants benefit at the expense of a country’s citizens (Davidai & Ongis, 2019; Esses et al, 2001; Louis et al, 2013), that racial minorities benefit at the majority’s expense (Norton & Sommers, 2011; Wilkins et al, 2015), and that women advance at men’s expense (Kehn & Ruthig, 2013; Wilkins et al, 2015).…”
