程序公正与公共政策可接受性:不确定性的中介作用
|
Abstract:
本研究在公共政策领域,通过问卷调查法和Scenario方法相结合的形式,探究程序公正、不确定性和公共政策可接受性变量间的关系,以及不确定性在程序公正和公共政策可接受性之间的中介作用。研究一采用问卷调查法对研究假设进行验证。为了克服问卷调查法的不足,研究二采用Scenario方法再次探究本研究假设。研究一和研究二的结果均表明:在公共政策领域,程序公正对公共政策可接受性产生积极影响,对不确定性产生消极影响。不确定性对公共政策可接受性产生消极影响。程序公正不仅能够直接正向预测政策可接受性,而且能够通过负向影响不确定性间接预测政策可接受性。
This study explores the relationships among procedural justice, uncertainty, and acceptance of public policy, as well as the mediating role of uncertainty between procedural justice and acceptance of public policy, in the field of public policy through a combination of questionnaire surveys and scenario methods. Study 1 uses a questionnaire survey to test the research hypotheses. To overcome the limitations of the questionnaire survey, Study 2 employs a scenario method to further explore the research hypotheses. The results of both Study 1 and Study 2 indicate that in the field of public policy, procedural justice has a positive impact on acceptance of public policy and a negative impact on uncertainty. Uncertainty has a negative impact on acceptance of public policy. Procedural justice not only directly positively predicts policy acceptance but also indirectly predicts it by negatively influencing uncertainty.
