Abstract
The purpose of this article is to clarify the findings of previous studies on the Shift-and-Persist strategy (S-P strategy) in a low socioeconomic status context, to introduce its theoretical models, and to make suggestions concerning the future direction of this research. First, we describe the relevant aspects of socioeconomic status and the harmful effects of low levels of socioeconomic status. Second, we describe the S-P strategy, which is a protective factor against the negative effects of socioeconomic status, and then review the findings of previous empirical studies. Third, we discuss three unconsidered issues regarding the S-P strategy in order to elaborate its theoretical model: 1) the external validity of the S-P strategy in Japan, 2) the impact of a stable and positive role model, and 3) how the S-P strategy effects the psychological benefits of low socioeconomic status during a threat. Finally, we offer suggestions for future research. It is highly possible that the S-P strategy will be a useful approach in various fields, so these issues should be clarified in future research.
