| Summary: | The purpose of this study was twofold. First, it examined how procedural and distributive justice influence college students’ perceptions of adoption of body-worn cameras by the police. Second, it explored how procedural and distributive justice influence college students’ perceptions of the ability of body-worn cameras to improve community relations, decrease citizen complaints, increase police officer respect, increase citizen respect, and improve training.

Perceived distributive injustice was also a consistent predictor regarding the varying abilities of body-worn cameras. |
