This is joint work with
Prof. Sandra Matz,
led by me as the Principal Investigator.
In this project, we examine the role of the psychological experience of a broken social contract in people’s trust in institutions and anti-establishment sentiment. To measure this, we identify gaps between what people believe they are promised by the state on paper (i.e., the constitution) and what they are being provided by the government in practice. Controlling for a wide range of potential confounds, we then examine the explanatory role this gap plays in various socio-political behavioral and attitudinal outcomes; broadly defined as political discontent.
Two major parts:
1. Broken Social Contract: Participants listed what
they believe are the top five guiding values for the US on paper and
what they believe are the top five guiding values for the US in
practice. For each of these perspectives, they assigned weights to each
value based on its perceived importance to the US on paper and in
practice, respectively.
2. Attitudes and individual differences: Participants
completed measures of anti-establishment sentiment, trust in
institutions, support for radical change, voting intentions, Social
Dominance Orientation (SDO), big five personality traits (i.e.,
openness, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness, and
neuroticism), political ideology and identification, and demographic
information.
We retrieved embeddings for each of the open-response guiding values
inputted by participants, five for the US on paper and five for the US
in practice. The embeddings were retrieved from OpenAI’s API, using the
text-embedding-3-large
model. This gave us a 3,072-dimensional vector representing the phrase’s
meaning in a large multi-dimensional semantic space.
Using participant-assigned weights, we then created weighted means for
each perspective (US on paper and US in practice). This resulted in two
3,072-dimensional vectors, representing America’s promise and America’s
policies in practice, as perceived by a single participant.
To compare the two vectors, we calculated their cosine similarity. So,
higher scores mean that America’s policies resemble its promise, whereas
lower scores mean that its policies do NOT resemble its promise.
Finally, to arrive at a broken social contract score, we
reverse-score the cosine similarity by subtracting it from 1.
The following linear models will be conducted for each of these
outcome variables: (1) Likelihood to vote in the 2024 Presidential
election; (2) support for radical change; (3) anti-establishment
sentiment; (4) trust in democratic institutions; (5) trust in mainstream
societal institutions.
1. Linear Model 1: Broken contract score as predictor; conservatism as
control.
2. Linear Model 2: Broken contract score as predictor; conservatism,
SDO, and agreeableness as controls.
3. Linear Model 3: Broken contract score as predictor; conservatism,
SDO, agreeableness, gender, race, ethnicity, income, education, and age
as controls.
4. Linear Model 4: Broken contract score as predictor; conservatism,
SDO, agreeableness, gender, race, ethnicity, income, education, age,
county mediation income, county GINI coefficient, and county density as
controls.
We collected data on 3/27/2024-3/28/2024 through Connect by
CloudResearch; an online participant recruitment platform. The sample
was intended to be representative of the U.S. population in March 2024
along the lines of gender (~50.4% women ~49.6% men), race (~58.9%
non-Hispanic White, ~18.2% Hispanic or Latino, ~13.6% Black, ~6.3%
Asian, and ~3% more than one race or other), age (~20.1% 18-29 years,
~25.9% 30-44 years, ~23.3% 45-59 years, and ~30.7% 60-99 years), and
political party affiliation (41% Independents, 30% Republicans, and 28%
Democrats). The target sample was set at 1,200 participants.
We excluded participants who failed attention checks: one simple
attention check embedded in the anti-establishment scale and another
with incoherent open-text. Let’s see how many eligible participants we
end up with:

Social Contract Measure
Values: US on paper
Since its independence and onwards, the formation of the United States as a sovereign country was based on a number of values, all of which were inscribed in the constitution. This document, importantly, has evolved since it was first written.
ON PAPER, what do you think are the values that the U.S. stands for? Please list FIVE values.
Each value should consist of 1-3 words. Try to be as clear and succinct as possible.

below are values mentioned, ordered by the number of mentions*
Weights: US on paper
participants were shown the values that they inputted in the previous question and were asked to assign them a forced sum of 100 points, based on its perceived importance to the US on paper.
The values you listed are shown below.
Now, we ask you to indicate how important you think each value is to the U.S. on paper.
To that end, you have a sum of 100 points. Please allocate those points to the values you listed based on how important you think they are to the U.S. ON PAPER.
For example, if you think all five values are equally important, each of them would get 20 points. If you think value X is more important than value Y, then value X would get more points than value Y.
Values: US in practice
We want you to think of the values that the United States stands for in practice.
Regardless of what is written in the constitution and across party lines, the U.S. administrations stand for certain values and do not stand for others.
IN PRACTICE, what do you believe are the values that the U.S. stands for? Please list FIVE values.
Each value should consist of 1-3 words. Try to be as clear and succinct as possible.
