Justice Sensitivity and Its Consequences for an Individual
Annotation
Justice is a social value that plays an important role in the distribution of various resources,maintaining the sustainability of society, therefore society is interested in strengthening it, andin the sensitivity of members of society to the facts of violations of justice. However, phenomenathat are favorable for society do not always contribute to the well-being of the individual. Justicesensitivity is a personality trait (disposition) that reflects individual differences in the readinessto perceive injustice and in the intensity of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses toinjustice. This article explores how justice sensitivity is related to indicators of emotional state,self-esteem and personal resilience. It is shown that justice sensitivity is positively associatedwith depressive symptoms, while its impact on subjective well-being is rather weak. It was foundthat this relationship is mediated by the variables of self-esteem and personal resilience. Also itwas demonstrated that characteristics of this connection vary depending on the position of thesubject in a hypothetical situation of a violation of justice (victim, observer, beneficiary, perpetrator). Justice sensitivity from the victim’s perspective makes the most powerful contributionto the current psychological state. This contribution is partly mediated by a negative relationship between justice sensitivity and self-esteem and resilience. The study also discusses genderspecificity of the relationship of justice sensitivity to indicators of emotional state, self-esteem,and sustainability; in general, it is confirmed that in women justice sensitivity is a more strongpredictor of negative emotional states, reduced self-esteem and subjective well-being.
