MURATORI, Marcela  e  ZUBIETA, Elena M.. Social dominance, counter social dominance and institutional selection: a study with civilians and military university students. Anu. investig. [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.1, pp.221-230. ISSN 1851-1686.

According to Sidanius and Pratto (1999) societies create consensus on specific ideologies, establishing legitimizing myths that promote superiority of one group over another in order to minimize conflicts that arise in social life. Beliefs and values about group’s equality or inequality are important for the functioning of social institutions to which individuals belong and the roles they should play. With the aim of exploring the relationship between dominance, counter-dominance, authoritarianism and values and to investigate whether there are differences depending on the type of educational institution, a correlational descriptive study with an intentional sample of 516 civilian and military university students was developed. The military have higher levels of dominance and authoritarianism, and greater civil counter-dominance and values- centered growth and social. There are also differences between those who attend public and private universities.
