Abstract
Across 3 experimental studies, using a meritocratic prime paradigm,
we show that when descriptive meritocracy is made salient, low-status
patients are assigned less priority for transplant, but only when the
disease is seen as of high-responsibility and when participants are
under time pressure to respond.**Junior Researcher**Programme
