Abstract :
This research paper examines how a
procedural justice policing approach affects how people
perceive their duty to follow police orders. It investigates
whether the degree of confidence that a citizen has in law
enforcement during a police-citizen encounter may have
an impact on how procedural justice functions in
relation to their duty to uphold the law. The effectiveness
of procedural justice in enticing citizens to uphold the
law is examined, as well as the possibility that citizens'
trust in the authorities may play a role in this. Numerous
studies have examined how procedural justice affects
people's attitudes toward and cooperation with the police
and other elements of the criminal justice system, but
many of these investigations did not break down
procedural justice into its different strands, such as
police procedural justice.The public's perception of the
police will increase if they execute their authority in a
procedurally fair manner, according to Tyler's process-
based model of policing. In the past, process-based study
has largely ignored public trust in the police in favor of
focusing on the sources of legitimacy. Tyler's process-
based policing model argues that the police can improve
the public's view of their legitimacy and dependability
by exercising their power in a procedurally fair manner.
Up until now, process-based research has mostly
disregarded the legitimacy of the police and focused on
the sources of legitimacy.
