Background: Interactions between social and personal behavioral choices might explain why individuals behave differently with respect to public laws and regulations, some of which are known to influence individuals’ health. Evaluation of such interactions needs valid assessment tools. Objectives: The primary objective of the present study was to develop and validate the Public Law-Abiding Beliefs and Practices Scale (PLABPS). The second objective was to examine whether there was a significant association between health-related and non-health-related behaviors (including COVID-19 preventive behaviors). Methods: To develop the scale, several steps were taken including item suggestion, discussion by an expert panel, performing a pilot study on the initial scale, sequential item reduction to maximize internal consistency using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, and finalizing the scale items through expert review. Data were collected from 1108 community-dwelling individuals aged 18 years and older. Internal consistency and construct validity of the PLABPS were examined. Results: A 10-item scale comprising two factors was extracted showing good psychometric properties. Confirmatory factor analysis results demonstrated good model fit indices (CMIN/DF: 2.340, SRMR = 0.053, RMSEA= 0.067, CFI= 0.960). The Cronbach alpha was 0.86 suggesting very good internal consistency. There was a significantly moderate association between PLABPS scores and COVID-19 preventive behaviors, indicating that individuals with greater law-abiding tendency were more likely to follow preventive COVID-19 behaviors. Conclusion: The PLABPS is a reliable and valid brief instrument for assessing individuals’ adherence to general public laws. The scale may predict COVID-19 protective behaviors and other health-related behaviors. Given its potential use with regard to psychosocial issues, the PLABPS may contribute to worldwide research in social and behavioral science fields.

“…The rule of law is crucial because students are the future of the country and a key to its revival (Xu, 2022 ). In this regard, the formation of law-abiding behavior, the identification and eradication of causes and situations that lead to the development of deviant behavior is one of the main areas of action for all subjects of the preventative system, including bodies exercising control in the field of education and institutions engaged in educational activities (Salakhova et al, 2020 ). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of higher education institutions in fostering law-abiding behavior among Chinese students.…”

University phase is a major turning point in youth's life and this is a time of profound mental and cognitive development of students. Without proper direction and guidance, it is common for students to develop deviant behaviors, non-law abidance and unhealthy beliefs. In this regard, an integral part of the educational process is the imparting of moral values and law-abiding behaviors in students. The objective of this study was to explore the role of higher education system in fostering law-abiding behavior among Chinese students, as well as the issues it causes for society. For this purpose, the principles of law-abiding behavior were studied and key psychological factors used in the system were identified. The suggestions of the bibliometric research are designed to improve and expand the method for preventing student misbehavior in educational institutions, hence enhancing the efficacy of preventative work with students. They may serve as the basis for the creation and enhancement of programs and strategies aimed at teaching lawful behavior among students. More than 3,785 articles were published related law-abiding behavior from 2000 to the end of July 2022 years were examined in this research using the Scopus database and the original sample was narrowed down to include only articles, book chapter and conference papers that contributed to law-abiding behavior and higher education literature. The VOS viewer software was used to execute the descriptive statistics and scientific mapping approaches using co-citation analysis. In the descriptive analysis, we analyzed publishing patterns over time, the geographical localization of the contributing institutions, journals, the most prolific authors. The findings of the present study may also provide the foundation for a planned educational initiative whose ultimate aim is to produce a fully realized, harmonious, self-reliant, mature, and law-abiding person. The study has provided supporting evidence for how youngsters legal sensibilities are shaped in universities have been implemented. Two distinct but interdependent educational spheres, the normative legal sphere and the space for the creation and development of students' personalities must work together to raise and educate youngsters.
