Procedural Justice and Police Legitimacy: A Test of Measurement and Structure (2013, methodology): “Table 3 displays the results for the first set of models.2 The first CFA model represented the replication of Gau (2011), with a test for the convergent and discriminant validity of global PJ and legitimacy.”
Procedural Justice, Legitimacy, and Public Cooperation with Police (2017, background): “This result is consistent with findings from recent studies (Gau 2011, 2014).”
Measuring Procedural Justice in Police-Citizen Encounters (2015, background): “The integration of both types of measures in the same study would be ideal for better estimating models of the hypothesized process that leads from police action through citizen cognition and emotion and ultimately citizen behavior (Gau, 2011).”
Does procedural justice matter to youth? Comparing adults' and youths' willingness to collaborate with police (2015, unknown): “…4 self-reported cooperative behaviours as has been shown regularly in the adult literature (for similar research conducted with young adults see Gau 2011 and Reisig et al. 2012; in Reisig et al.’s (2012) study, legitimacy explained willingness to support police with information about some…”
Trust in the Police (2015, background): “Gau and associates (2012), for example, recently found that concentrated disadvantage (i.”
Examining macro-level impacts on procedural justice and police legitimacy (2012, methodology): “Those that have included a police contact measure have found that this variable is either nonsignificant (Gau, 2011; Kochel, in press; Murphy, Hinds, & Fleming, 2008; Wolfe, 2011) or very modest in magnitude (Reisig, 2007).”
Why Do People Comply with the Law? Legitimacy and the Influence of Legal Institutions (2012, result): “Our measures largely mirror those of Tyler and colleagues (Sunshine and Tyler, 2003; Tyler 2006; see also Reisig et al., 2007, and Gau, 2011).”
Procedural justice, police legitimacy, and legal cynicism: a test for mediation effects (2015, background): “…model evinced questionable factor loadings (all trust loadings ≥ .761; obey ranging from .384 to .468) that suggested an absence of unidimensionality (see Gau, 2011; Reisig et al., 2007 for discussions).1 Separating them into two factors improved model fit (CFI = .975, RMSEA = .074, SRMR = .043).”
