ABSTRACT

In order to explore the mediating role of sense of security in the relationship between college students' belief in a just world and their willingness to sue, we conducted a questionnaire survey among 878 college students. The results show that college students' belief in a just world can positively predict their litigation will. In addition, the order mediation effect (belief in a just world will enhance the sense of security, and security has a positive predictive effect on litigation will) is also supported. Therefore, college students' belief in a just world can not only positively affect their litigation will, but also indirectly affect them through their sense of security.
