We further analyzed how the erosion of these key values might be negatively associated with people's well\u2010being. We found support for our contentions through multiple studies, including a cross\u2010national study comprising 82 countries surveyed over 32\u2009years (Study 1,\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009210,207). This large\u2010scale study was further supported by two experimental studies (Studies 2 and 3,\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009449) elucidating the mechanisms and causality involved in these processes. Our findings showed that corruption leads individuals to ascribe lower morality to politicians, which in turn is associated with lower perceptions of justice. Our data show that this process is negatively associated with well\u2010being, contributing to a broader understanding of how corruption impacts individuals and societies.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/pops.70110","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,24]],"date-time":"2026-01-24T04:41:04Z","timestamp":1769229664000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Corruption erodes people's beliefs in morality and justice"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"47","author":[{"given":"Miguel R.","family":"Ramos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Social Policy, Sociology and Criminology, University of Birmingham  Birmingham UK"}]},{"given":"Marcelo","family":"Moriconi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for International Studies of Iscte (CEI\u2010Iscte), Iscte\u2010Instituto Universitario de Lisboa  Lisbon Portugal"}]},{"given":"Sibila","family":"Marques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Psychological Research and Social Intervention (CIS\u2010Iscte), Iscte\u2010Instituto Universitario de Lisboa  Lisbon Portugal"}]},{"given":"Carla","family":"Branco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Psychological Research and Social Intervention (CIS\u2010Iscte), Iscte\u2010Instituto Universitario de Lisboa  Lisbon Portugal"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1540-5907.00007"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.socscimed.2008.01.030"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1521\/soco.2014.32.4.397"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","volume-title":"The sense of well\u2010being in America","author":"Campbell A.","year":"1981"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11205-018-1850-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","volume-title":"Statistical power analysis for the behavioral sciences","author":"Cohen J.","year":"1988"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0022-3514.92.4.631"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4757-6418-5_6"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4757-3383-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0963-7214.2004.00501001.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0033-2909.125.2.276"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_13_1","volume-title":"Emile Durkheim on morality and society","author":"Durkheim E.","year":"1973"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11218\u2010017\u20109416\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/psrm.2013.24"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_16_1","volume-title":"Social beings: A core motives approach to social psychology","author":"Fiske S.
