Status inconsistency
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Status inconsistency is a situation where an individual's social positions have both positive and negative influences on his or her social status. For example, a teacher may have a positive societal image (respect, prestige) which increases his or her status but may earn little money, which simultaneously decreases his or her status. Status Inconsistency is a situation in which a person occupies two or more statuses of different rank.
