South Africans have a strong tendency to get their social status wrong, and race is a key obstacle they face in matching their class to what is objectively true, according to a new study.

The objective measure of social position uses aFor the subjective measure, respondents were asked to place themselves on one of 10 ladder rungs representing South African society, and they answered another question about whether they saw themselves as working class, middle class or upper-middle class.

“This is surprising, since South Africa suffers from higher inequality and poverty compared to these developing countries,” say the researchers. “It indicates that overall, South Africans might have a strong tendency to inflate their social positions.” People with tertiary education tended to deflate their position, while the opposite applied to those with only primary education. “This makes sense, since those with tertiary education levels have more information about the social inequalities in South Africa and can therefore place themselves in a position that is more aligned with their objective position.”
