Abstract
Economic inequality, which has a great effect on society, can be measured by Gini coefficient in most cases. However, the coefficient can hardly explain the effects specifically. This article aims to solve it with relative deprivation theory (RD). It measures the positive and negative effects of RD with membership function and establishes "Attitude Index" (AI) to measure the effects of economic inequality. The article also analyzes the effects among ten typical countries (cities) with AI and the cumulative distribution of AI.
