Social class is more than just how much money you have. It's also the clothes you wear, the music you like, the school you go toand has a strong influence on how you interact with others, according to the authors of a new article in Current Directions in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science. People from lower classes have fundamentally different ways of thinking about the world than people in upper classesa fact that should figure into debates on public policy, according to the authors.
