The Effects of the Perceived Risk and Benefit on the Acceptance of Prison - Focusing on the Moderating Effect of Trust in Prison -

This study examined the effects of perceived risk and benefit on the acceptance of prison. Trust in prison was operationalized as a moderating variable between perceived risk and benefit and the acceptance of prison. A survey was conducted via an offline panel with 450 residents near the prison. As proposed by the hypothesis, the results showed that perceived risk had negative effect on the acceptance of prison, and perceived benefit had positive effect on the acceptance of prison. However, trust in prison didn’t moderate the impact of perceived risk and benefit on the acceptance of prison. Based on these results, this study suggested the theoretical and policy implications to improve the acceptance of prison.
