Abstract
This study uses a survey experimental approach in order to quantify
concerns for relative position in rural and urban Uganda along
the dimensions of income, education and weddings. Positionality was
found to be overall low. Income and education are more positional
among urban dwellers and weddings were on average twice as positional
as income and education. The rural-urban differences are found
to be partly due to differences in wealth.
