Procedural Justice, Problem Solving, and Negotiation Outcomes

[Abstract]:\udBuilding on content analysis of negotiator statements that compared the process and outcome in multiple international, intergovernmental negotiations, this study further assesses the existence of procedural justice in eleven negotiations, to compare three categories of variables: process, procedural justice and outcome. The research asks whether procedural justice, problem solving processes and integrative outcomes are correlated, and whether procedural justice is a mediating influence between the other two variables. In addition, duration of the agreement was included as a fourth variable for some analyses. A question of interest is whether procedural justice also mediates the relationship between problem solving and duration
