                            <p>Bu çalışmanın amacı Nijerya vatandaşları için Yargısız Adalet Ölçeğinin geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik analizini yapmaktır. Çalışmanın örneklemini 18 yaş üstü ve çalışmaya katılmaya gönüllü olan 600 Nijeryalı oluşturmaktadır. Ölçek 14 madde ve &quot;Yasadışı infaz&quot;, &quot;İddianame&quot;, &quot;Yasadışı tutuklama&quot; ve &quot;Gözdağı&quot; olmak üzere 4 faktörden oluşmaktadır. Ölçeğin toplam Cronbach α katsayısı 0.859. Olarak bulunmuştur, buna göre Nijerya vatandaşları için Yargısız Adalet Ölçeği geçerli ve güvenilir bir araç olarak kullanılabilir. Nijerya&#039;da yargısız adaleti değerlendirmek için kullanılan bir ölçek olmadığı göz önünde bulundurulduğunda, bu çalışmanın konuyla ilgili gelecekteki araştırmalara yol göstereceği ve toplum için önemini ortaya koyacağı düşünülmektedir.</p></trans-abstract>

Sample of the study consisted of 600 Nigerians who were above 18 years and who volunteered to participate in the study. The scale consists of 14 items and 4 factors as “Illegal execution”, “Indictment”, “Unlawful arrest” and “Intimidation”. Total Cronbach α coefficient of the scale was found as 0.859. Accordingly, the Extrajudicial Justice Scale can be used as a valid and reliable instrument for Nigerian citizens. Considering that there is no scale used to assess extrajudicial justice in Nigeria, it is thought that this study will guide future research on the subject and reveal its importance for the society.</p></abstract>
