Sumario:The present study aimed to analyze the mediating role of social dominance orientation in the correlations between political identity and ambivalent sexism. The sample was composed of 152 people who answered a questionnaire with the Social Dominance Orientation Scale, the Sexism Ambivalent Inventory, and questions regarding political identity, age, gender, educational level, and income. The analysis of the results confirmed positive relations between political identity, social dominance orientation, and ambivalent sexism. It also demonstrated SDO as a mediator between political identity and both forms of sexism. The results confirm that the tendency to support social hierarchies indicates greater alignment with right-wing politics and endorsement of sexist attitudes.
