摘要

Job satisfaction for police officers is linked to many salient and beneficial outcomes. Improving the job satisfaction of officers can aid not only the officers, but the police organization and the community. One way to increase satisfaction from the job is to improve views of organizational justice, a concept that refers to the perception that an employing organization is fair in its treatment of its employees. The four major dimensions of organizational justice are informational, interpersonal, procedural, and distributive. The current study proposed that informational and interpersonal justice would be related to procedural and distributive justice, and procedural justice would be related to distributive justice. In turn, procedural and distributive justice were predicted to be associated with job satisfaction. Using data from police officers receiving training at three training centers in three different cities in China, the proposed model was supported. Informational and interpersonal justice were significant predictors of higher levels of procedural and distributive justice. Procedural justice had a significant association with higher levels of distributive justice. Lastly, both procedural and distributive justice had significant associations with higher levels of job satisfaction.
