Abstract
The focus of this thesis is on applying and testing the constructs of perceived coercion, perceived pressures and procedural justice within the context of the COVID-19 lockdowns. This thesis is divided into three sections. Part One details the findings of a scoping review exploring what is known about perceived coercion, perceived pressures and procedural justice and the attitudes of the general population towards COVID-19 lockdowns imposed by governments worldwide. Part Two consists of an empirical chapter describing an online survey conducted in the UK adult general population during the UK 2020-2021 COVID-19 lockdowns that examines the prevalence and relationship between the aforementioned constructs, psychological wellbeing and coping mechanisms. The purpose of Parts One and Two is to inform our global understanding and current national policy on the factors that contribute to greater perceived coercion, with a view to preparing for the possibility of future epidemics or pandemics. Finally, Part Three comprises a series of reflections on the experience of conducting the research and learning points that may be useful to other researchers too.
