The self-value function of procedural justice : Testing the social identity models of authority supports.

本文共分三个研究，旨在通过检验社会认同中介模型，揭示程序正义的自我价值功能。研究一考察了社会认同在程序公正知觉与群体行为（如对权威和成员的支持）之间的中介作用。群体导向行为被分为自信和成本。为检验模型，进行了两次关于国家政治的调查，样本为700名公民。结构方程模型（SEM）显示，自豪感在程序公正知觉和对权威的支持行为之间起中介作用。从感知到行为的非冥想过程也可用。在对成员的支持方面，当行为表现为高自信时，只需要社会认同的中介过程。研究二考察了关系自尊与程序公正知觉的关系模型。SEM结果显示，关系自尊通过社会认同过程中的知觉、情感自豪感和尊重得到增强。研究3还表明，该模型适用于以国家为导向的态度。这些研究证明了程序正义的自我价值功能，并表明程序正义通过认同过程将人们与他们的群体联系起来。

This article consists of 3 studies each aimed to reveal the self-value function of procedural justice by testing the social identity mediation model. Study 1 examined the function of social identity as mediator that link procedural justice perception and group-oriented behaviors such as support for the authority and members. Group-oriented behaviors were categorized by assertiveness and cost. Two surveys concerning national politics with a sample of 700 citizens were conducted for testing the models. Structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed that the pride mediated between procedural justice perception and supportive behaviors for the authority. Non-meditative processes from the perception to the behavior were also available. As for the supports for members, only the social identity mediation processes were needed when the behaviors were high assertiveness. Study 2 examined the model on the relational self-esteem that was introduced as a new concept of state self-esteem linking to procedural justice perception. SEMs revealed that the relational self-esteem was enhanced by the perception through the social identity processes ; the emotional pride and the respect. Study 3 also showed that the model was fitted on national-oriented attitudes. These studies proved that the self-value function of procedural justice and indicated that the procedural justice connects the people to their group through identification processes.
