Abstract

Observers' reactions to, and internal justification of, the perceived victimization of another individual were investigated. Utilizing a “just world” model, three “perceived” conditions of victimization are employed: the innocent victim, the deserved victim, and the martyr. Several hypotheses are tested through the application of a two-way analysis of variance and several independent sample t tests. Only partial support for the “just world” model was demonstrated.
