Abstrakt

Badania pokazuje, że ludzie postrzegają nierówność dochodów odmiennie od wskazań najczęściej stosowanych miar nierówności i aksjomatów (postulowanych własności nierówności). Niniejszy artykuł analizuje i porównuje ze sobą wyniki różnych badań dotyczących postrzegania nierówności dochodów. Opisuje podstawowe aksjomaty pomiaru nierówności wraz z poziomem poparcia wyrażonym przez respondentów w badaniach. Artykuł pokazuje, że o ile odpowiedzi na pojedyncze pytania rzadko są idealnie zgodne z miara mi nierówności, o tyle ogólny wzór odpowiedzi respondentów jest silnie z tymi miarami skorelowany. Argumentuje również, że obserwowane różnice między odpowiedziami badanych a miarami nierówności mogą zostać wyjaśnione przez
zastosowanie sugestii Amartyi Sena, że nierówność dochodów jest koncepcją wielowymiarową (1973, str. 48).
