Domain-dependent meritocracy

Short Description: This module examines whether people accept merit-based inequalities not only in income and wealth but also in health, education, and political power. It also investigates whether life shocks or trends, such as unemployment, income loss, or poor health, predict fairness perceptions across these key domains.

Methodological Details: Respondents were asked to rate their agreement with different statements.
