Abstract

This paper explores how individual differences in socioeconomic status can influence an individual's cognitive mapping of governance, that is whether they pursue a formal or informal mechanism of governance. This research shows a positive relationship between socioeconomic status and formality of governance so that those of a higher socioeconomic status pursue formal mechanisms of governance to address needs more than those of a lower status.
