Seeking high status in a group one isn’t passionate about—does it pay off? Recent research from Cornell says it doesn’t. The researcher conducted 10 experiments with 3,554 participants. They discovered that having more high-status roles generally improved well-being, but only in groups that mattered to individuals.
