Criminology Education Higher Education Social Psychology Social Research Sociology procedural distributive justice student perceptions judiciaries university This paper reports the application of procedural justice theories to the setting of higher education. In particular, the setting included Ohio University processes and its students ranging from freshmen to graduate students. This project used an email based survey to study the perceptions of college students toward a university judiciaries system. The study was influenced by the Tyler, Callahan, and Frost 2007 work on rule adherence among police officers and military personnel. My findings indicate that instrumental perspectives, such as in the deterrence literature, are not the primary reason as to why students obey university rules. Rather, normative perspectives, which are based on fairness and morality, are much closer in relation to voluntary deference of the law. It goes on to suggest that using a collective understanding of the influence of both instrumental and normative perspectives on the perceptions of people, instead of focusing on just one, is the best way to predict rule adherence. 2009-04-27 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1237382026 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1237382026 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
