Abstract

Published research on the predictors of police officer life satisfaction in terms of workplace variables is important but limited; research concerning police officers in China (despite the large number of officers employed there) is even more limited. This study tests the hypotheses that perceptions of procedural and distributive justice would be related to the life satisfaction of Chinese police officers in three major Chinese areas: southern, central, and western China. Both procedural justice and distributive justice were significantly associated with higher life satisfaction. These results indicate that enhancing police life satisfaction likely involves enhancing procedural and/or distributive justice.
