The present study extends past research by examining the independent and interactive effects of three personal income factors. An experiment was conducted where subjective income (both absolute and relative) were manipulated and objective relative income was measured. Subjective relative income impacted perceived deprivation, negative affect, and state hostility, whereas the other two income factors showed a main effect on perceived deprivation only. Regarding interaction effects, objective relative income impacted life satisfaction and positive affect only for individuals in the high (vs. low) subjective absolute income condition, i.e., those who perceived their income as adequate for needs\/wants. We proposed that the relative deprivation theory (\n                    <jats:xref ref-type=\"bibr\">Smith et al., 2012<\/jats:xref>\n                    ), which primarily focuses on the impact of low relative income (or income inequality), should be expanded to account for\n                    <jats:italic>both<\/jats:italic>\n                    perceived deprivation \u201crelative to others\u201d\n                    <jats:italic>and<\/jats:italic>\n                    perceived deprivation \u201crelative to one\u2019s own needs\/wants.\u201d\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/00332941231204299","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,5]],"date-time":"2023-10-05T18:19:28Z","timestamp":1696529968000},"page":"3335-3356","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Objective Relative Income Impacts Life Satisfaction and Positive Affect Only When Subjective Absolute Income is High"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"128","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0579-7288","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qin","family":"Zhao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, Western Kentucky University, Bowling Green, KY, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tao","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Economics, Western Kentucky University, Bowling Green, KY, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00428859"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0278-6133.19.6.586"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0146167295215002"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10888-013-9262-7"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12939-017-0566-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11205-007-9217-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0047-2727(02)00168-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11205-009-9452-7"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_10_1","first-page":"75","volume-title":"Inclusion, justice and poverty reduction","author":"Bourguignon F.","year":"1999","unstructured":"Bourguignon F.
