PSYCHOLOGICAL MECHANISM OF THE AUDIENCE OF LEGAL EDUCATION


Abstract
The ultimate goal of legal education is to make all the people know, understand and obey the laws, laying the basis for law-based governance. This paper aims to design suitable measures to promote legal education based on the psychology of the audience. To identify the psychological status of the audience in legal education, a questionnaire survey was carried out among urban residents, some of whom have served in the judicial department. Then, the psychological mechanism of the audience was analysed from the aspects of cognitive process, emotional process and will process. The results show that the main problems with legal education lies in the dominance by the government, the lack of systematicity, and the outdated education methods; the problems with the audience are their insufficient psychological needs and passive acceptance. The research findings shed new light on how to improve legal education from the angle of audience psychology.

Keywords
