Psychological researchers in Finland have created an assessment to help measure an individual’s commitment to principles of social justice and made some surprising findings across the Finnish population — including a negative correlation between progressive ideals and levels of happiness.
The pilot survey included 851 adult participants most of whom were associated with the University of Turku. After refining the initial scale, the study was expanded to a more representative national sample of 5,000 participants, distributed via Helsingin Sanomat, Finland’s largest newspaper.
In the end, their final Critical Social Justice Attitude Scale identified seven truisms of woke people:
* “If white people have on average a higher level of income than black people, it is because of racism.”
* “University reading lists should include fewer white or European authors.” “Microaggressions should be challenged often and actively.”
* “Trans* women who compete with women in sports are not helping women’s rights.” (reverse scored)
* “We don’t need to talk more about the color of people’s skin.”
* “A white person cannot understand how a black person feels equally well as another black person.”
* “A member of a privileged group can adopt features or cultural elements of a less privileged group.” (reverse scored)
