Emotional Reactions to Unequal Payment: The Impact of Meritocratic Ideology and Salary Negotiability حسب Maitner, Angela

"…However, learning that a system is non-negotiable violates expectations associated with meritocratic beliefs, and may therefore increase negative emotion. In two experiments investigating participants’ emotional reactions to payment systems, the more participants endorsed meritocratic ideologies, the less anger they felt when unequal treatment appeared negotiable. …"
