Abstract
Social dominance orientation (SDO) is an individual's preference for group-based inequality and dominance versus equality and inclusion. SDO has multiple origins, including status, gender, socialization, and temperament and personality. SDO is a strong predictor of intergroup ideologies and behaviors, making it indispensable for studying intergroup relations.
