Manchester Evening News 19/12/2019 News The Significance of Instrumental Pathways to Legitimacy and Public Support For Policing in South Korea: Is the Role of Procedural Fairness Too Small? This study tests whether Tyler’s process-based model can be generalized to South Korea. It examines whether procedural fairness has a greater effect on the public’s perception of police legitimacy, compared to instrumental judgements about police behaviour. It also investigates the direct and indirect effects of procedural and instrumental judgements on the public’s compliance with the law and cooperation with the police. Using data drawn from a national survey of 1018 South Korean adults, our results find that procedural fairness, police effectiveness of maintaining law and order, and deterrence are significant factors contributing to police legitimacy, and that police effectiveness has the greatest impact when using a full model. Legitimacy fully mediates the link between procedural fairness and acts of compliance and cooperation, and it partially mediates the link between police effectiveness and the public’s cooperation with police, as well as the link between deterrence and compliance and cooperation.
