Macrojustice and just-world belief in conflict management

本研究探讨了宏观正义感和公正世界信念对公民对地方政府与当地居民建设冲突的认知的影响。我们假设，公民的意见和偏好，以及有关各方的意见和偏好，在与建设有关的冲突中发挥着关键作用。特别是，我们认为市民对地方政府或当地居民等相关方的基本利益的看法，将决定他们对公共工程项目的态度，进而影响地方政府与当地居民之间冲突的后果。这一假设是通过使用两个在线调查进行调查，并得到部分支持。

The present research explored the effects of both perceived macrojustice and the belief in a just world on citizens' construal of conflicts pertaining to construction between local governments and local residents. We assumed that citizens' opinions and preferences, as well as those of the involved parties, play a critical role in conflicts pertaining to construction. In particular, we expected that citizens' perceptions of the underlying interests of the parties involved, such as the local government or local residents, would determine their attitudes toward public works projects and subsequently influence the consequences of conflicts between the local government and local residents. This hypothesis was investigated by using two online surveys and was partially supported.
