Presentation Type: Virtual Poster Presentation
This study examined the role of perceived controllability, collective efficacy and the moderating role of time perspective on farmers'-herders' self-other justice perception. 450 participants made up of 391 farmers and 59 herders participated in the study. The design of the study was ex post facto, and a multi stage sampling technique was adopted in the study. The sense of control scale, community collective efficacy scale, the short version Zimbardo time perspective inventory, and the Self-other justice perception scale were the instruments used in the study. The independent sample t test and multiple regression were the statistics used to analyse data. The result of the study revealed that perceived controllability and collective efficacy negatively predicted self-other justice perception. Results also revealed that perceived controllability and collective efficacy jointly predicted self-other justice perception among farmers and herders. Results further revealed that present hedonistic perspective, past positive perspective and present fatalistic perspective independently predicted self-other justice perception. Past positive time perspective also moderated the relationship between perceived as, collective efficacy and self-other justice perception. Results also revealed that occupation had a significant influence on self-other justice perception. It was therefore concluded that perceived controllability, collective efficacy, time perspective and occupation play critical roles in predicting self-other justice perception among farmers and herders. it was therefore recommended that procedures and structures of resource use that are fair and unbiased be established and applied to minimize the continuous conflict between farmers and herders.
