The purpose of this study of public cooperation with the police in Japan is twofold: First, it draws on the legitimacy model to investigate the causal relationship between trust in and cooperation with the police in Japan, and explores how well the model fits the sample data. Second, it seeks to identify the determinant factors of public cooperation with the police in Japan. The key finding of the first analysis is that the legitimacy model does not seem to be sufficiently applicable to the Japanese data. The effects of the two key elements of police legitimacy-perceived duty toward and moral alignment with the police-on cooperation with the police were not significant. The findings of the second analysis show, rather, that gender, age, education, marital status, years of residence, and perceived sanctions are determinants of cooperation with the police. Among the findings, marital status and years of residence are worth our attention, given the results of the gender-specific analyses. Possible reasons for these results are discussed in consideration of various aspects of Japanese society, such as traditional gender role expectations.
