social dominance orientation  

Definition(s)

  • Social dominance orientation (SDO) is a concept developed in social dominance theory (SDT) to describe an individual-level value structure that prefers inequality and stratified categorization among social groups. Individuals with high SDO desire a society marked by stratification and are thus inclined to accept such social structures as warranted. [Source: International Encyclopedia of Political Science; Social Dominance Orientation]
