Managing compliance with procedural justice: The role of motivational postures, legitimacy and emotion

监管机构的存在是为了确保公众遵守法律规定的义务。但与此同时，监管机构行使权力的方式不应导致公众的疏远。该项目将利用社会科学方法，研究程序上公平的监管在促进对当局的信任和信心方面可以发挥的作用。该项目的国家和社区效益将包括确定如何促进更大程度的合作和遵守监管决定和法律;特别是在那些可能对他们与当局的经历感到不满的人中。

Regulatory authorities exist to ensure that members of the public comply with their obligations under the law. At the same time, however, regulators should not exercise their authority in ways that result in the alienation of the public. Using social science methodology, this project will examine the role that procedurally fair regulation can play in promoting trust and confidence in authorities. The national and community benefits of this project will include ascertaining how greater levels of cooperation and compliance with regulatory decisions and laws can be facilitated; particularly among those who may feel disgruntled with their experiences with authority.
