Sensitivity to the Ferguson Effect: The role of managerial organizational justice (2016, background): “On the other hand, officers who believe their supervisors are unfair express less trust in their agency (Wolfe & Nix, 2016b) and are more likely to engage in misconduct (Wolfe & Piquero, 2011).”
Low Self-Control and Police Deviance: Applying Gottfredson and Hirschi’s General Theory to Officer Misconduct (2014, background): “Wolfe and Piquero (2011) even suggest that one of the biggest gaps that remains “concerns the largely atheoretical nature of this line of work” (p. 332).”
Body-Worn Cameras and Citizen Interactions with Police Officers: Estimating Plausible Effects Given Varying Compliance Levels (2017, methodology): “Wolfe and Piquero (2011) applied the theory of organizational justice to police misconduct in their analysis of data obtained from 499 Philadelphia Police Department officers.”
Justice from within: The relations between a procedurally just organizational climate and police organizational efficiency, endorsement of democratic policing, and officer well-being. (2016, background): “Wolfe and Piquero (2011) showed that internal fairness was associated with fewer citizen complaints and disciplinary charges.”
Explaining officer compliance: The importance of procedural justice and trust inside a police organization (2015, background): “…in explaining this result, it could also be worth testing the following hypothesis: as more experienced police officers are more likely to hold supervisory responsibilities themselves, they may attach more importance to conformity, in every aspect of their work (cf. Wolfe and Piquero, 2011).”
Higher Education, College Degree Major, and Police Occupational Attitudes (2015, background): “The two items pertaining to rewards for exemplary performance tap into whether officers believe that hard work will pay off (Gaines, Tubergen, & Paiva, 1984), while the discipline item captures officers’ sense of procedural (in)justice at the organizational level (see Wolfe & Piquero, 2011).”
