在社会心理学中,程序正义理论被用来理解遵守法律的权威(如警察)的变化。因此,这可能有助于解释警察与严重精神疾病患者(SMI)之间的合作与依从性差异,这些患者往往充满困难和风险。在这篇文章中,我们研究在何种程度上与自我报告的合作水平和阻力遇到警察与SMI的人之间的程序正义的看法。我们还研究了耻辱和遭遇类型作为潜在的调节程序正义的效果。一百五十四人与严重的精神疾病谁在过去的一年内报告了警察接触采访使用新开发的警察接触经验调查,其中包括问题的特点,接触,感知程序正义(PPJ)和程度的合作和阻力。参与者还完成了链接感知贬值和歧视量表(PDS)。研究结果表明,更大的PPJ与更多的合作和更少的阻力。然而,对合作的影响是温和的感知耻辱和遭遇的类型。感知耻辱感(PDS)对合作的直接影响是出乎意料的,更高的感知耻辱感与更大的合作。调查结果强调了在警察与弱势群体的互动中程序公正治疗的重要性,并进一步努力减少精神疾病的耻辱感。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2016阿帕,保留所有权利)
Within social psychology, procedural justice theory has been used to understand variations in compliance with legal authorities such as the police. Thus, it may help explain variation in cooperation and compliance in encounters between police officers and people with serious mental illnesses (SMI), which are often fraught with difficulty and risk. In this article, we examine the extent to which perceptions of procedural justice among persons with SMI are associated with self-reported levels of cooperation and resistance in encounters with police. We also examine stigma and encounter type as potential moderators of the procedural justice effect. One hundred fifty-four persons with serious mental illnesses who reported a police contact within the past year were interviewed using the newly developed Police Contact Experience Survey, which includes questions about the characteristics of the contact, perceived procedural justice (PPJ) and degree of cooperation and resistance. Participants also completed the Link Perceived Devaluation and Discrimination Scale (PDS). Findings suggest that greater PPJ is associated with more cooperation and less resistance. The effect on cooperation, however, is moderated by both perceived stigma and the type of encounter. The direct effect of perceived stigma (PDS) on cooperation was unexpected, with higher perceived stigma associated with greater cooperation. Findings underline the importance of both procedurally just treatment in police interactions with vulnerable individuals and further efforts to reduce the stigma of mental illness.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
