Locus of Control as a Moderator of the Relationship Between Perceived Influence and Procedural Justice

Abstract

A survey of 172 employees of a consumer products manufacturing firm was used to test hypotheses about procedural justice. Some reviewers have noted that perceptions of procedural justice are enhanced by the degree of perceived influence workers have in decision making. However, not all research on this topic is consistent. We suggest that the perceived influence-procedural justice relation may be moderated by an employee's locus of control orientation. Our data support this hypothesis. Perceived influence was more likely to lead to perceptions of procedural justice for internals than externals. Implications of these results are discussed.
