This study examined the interaction between unmitigated communion (UC) and gender on gender system justification (GSJ). UC is a trait of putting others before oneself. GSJ is a tendency to maintain the status quo, even if it is unequal. Participants included 200 females and 200 males (Mage=20.5). Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted including the interaction terms of UC and GSJ. Since the interaction was significant, a simple main effect test was conducted, a positive association for females, and a negative association for males. The results were interpreted regarding the fit in society for females and a lack of merit for males.
