Which Side Are You on? Misperceived Social Norms Towards Union Membership
研究发现年轻工人低估了同龄人对工会会员的支持,纠正这一误解能提高加入意愿,但不会改变实际行为,说明多元无知是阻碍工会化的心理因素。
ABSTRACT Young workers underestimate their peers' support for trade union membership. In a pre‐registered experiment ( N = 444), correcting this misperception increased stated joining intentions but did not change behaviour. The findings identify pluralistic ignorance as a psychological barrier to unionisation, suggesting that social norm messaging could support union recruitment among young workers.
