IneQuality between reality and Perception
This is the first comprehensive study of perceptions of inequality in Italy!
The IneqPer project (2023–2025) investigates:
Whether, and to what extent, people perceive inequalities related to socio-economic positions, gender, and immigration status as a relevant societal issue.
How people perceive their own position in society in relation to such inequalities.
Which individual and contextual factors correlate to people’s perceptions of inequality.
We aim to:
1. Develop a survey for a representative sample of the Italian adult population.
2. Design and implement survey experiments that assess social (mis) perceptions and test how they can be challenged.
3. Analyse the main determinants
Ineqper is formed of a partnership between University of Pavia, University of Bologna and the Catholic University Milan
