According to World Health Organization (WHO), violence is defined as “the intentional use of physical force and power against oneself, against a group or community or another person, that either result in maldevelopment deprivation, death, psychological harm and injury” ADDIN EN.CITE <EndNote><Cite><Author>Krug</Author><Year>2002</Year><RecNum>1159</RecNum><DisplayText>(Krug et al. 2002)</DisplayText><record><rec-number>1159</rec-number><foreign-keys><key app="EN" db-id="axzrwpxxqvwtw5evsf3xrer2arfwsa5f0e5d" timestamp="1571417880">1159</key></foreign-keys><ref-type name="Journal Article">17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author>Krug, Etienne G</author><author>Mercy, James A</author><author>Dahlberg, Linda L</author><author>Zwi, Anthony B</author></authors></contributors><titles><title>The world report on violence and health</title><secondary-title>The lancet</secondary-title></titles><periodical><full-title>The lancet</full-title></periodical><pages>1083-1088</pages><volume>360</volume><number>9339</number><dates><year>2002</year></dates><isbn>0140-6736</isbn><urls></urls></record></Cite></EndNote>(Krug et al. 2002). In recent years, increased research has been conducted in the field related to violence. One of the reasons can be due to the hazardous effect of violence on communities and society.

At a large population-level study, attitudes are usually described as opinion surveys in which participants usually state their opinions regarding any matter. Attitudes toward justice and crime have been of great importance to researchers, policymakers, criminal justice practitioners and researchers. Cultural-based learning is a pedagogical approach that integrates learning with community service.

Given the scale and scope of this issue, it is important to determine the attitude of young people towards violence as it plays an important role in preventing crime. The research on the opinion of students about justice and crime system has been neglected area and the major focus of the past studies were on the attitude of the public towards justice and crime. Therefore, this study will be conducted with the main aim to determine the student attitude towards justice and crime.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Developed countries are fascinated with justice and crime. From magazines, films, newspapers, television broadcast and books to routine conversations, we are engaging constantly in crime talk. Mass and social media also play an important role in the construction of the criminal justice system. The public perception of violent criminals, law enforcement officials have largely been determined in different studies. Studies have shown that a public knowledge about justice and crime is derived from mass and social media ADDIN EN.CITE <EndNote><Cite><Author>Anderson</Author><Year>2006</Year><RecNum>1156</RecNum><DisplayText>(Anderson et al. 2006)</DisplayText><record><rec-number>1156</rec-number><foreign-keys><key app="EN" db-id="axzrwpxxqvwtw5evsf3xrer2arfwsa5f0e5d" timestamp="1571417377">1156</key></foreign-keys><ref-type name="Journal Article">17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author>Anderson, Craig A</author><author>Benjamin Jr, Arlin J</author><author>Wood, Phillip K</author><author>Bonacci, Angelica M</author></authors></contributors><titles><title>Development and testing of the Velicer attitudes toward violence scale: Evidence for a four‐factor model</title><secondary-title>Aggressive Behavior: Official Journal of the International Society for Research on Aggression</secondary-title></titles><periodical><full-title>Aggressive Behavior: Official Journal of the International Society for Research on Aggression</full-title></periodical><pages>122-136</pages><volume>32</volume><number>2</number><dates><year>2006</year></dates><isbn>0096-140X</isbn><urls></urls></record></Cite></EndNote>(Anderson et al. 2006).. A study was conducted by Melossi in which he examines the social factors associated with the crime. Results showed that justice and crime are influenced by social and economic dynamics. Studies have shown that attitude towards justice and crime plays an important role in society. Respect for public opinion and system are closely tied. Another study was conducted in which it was shown that the opinion of the public is connected directly with pressure to change the policies of crime especially when there is a large fear of crime. Some studies have been conducted in which the gender differences concerning the perception towards crime and justice have been explored. It was shown that males have more confidence in the justice and crime system as compare to females ADDIN EN.CITE <EndNote><Cite><Author>Resnick</Author><Year>2004</Year><RecNum>1155</RecNum><DisplayText>(Resnick, Ireland and Borowsky 2004)</DisplayText><record><rec-number>1155</rec-number><foreign-keys><key app="EN" db-id="axzrwpxxqvwtw5evsf3xrer2arfwsa5f0e5d" timestamp="1571416984">1155</key></foreign-keys><ref-type name="Journal Article">17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author>Resnick, Michael D</author><author>Ireland, Marjorie</author><author>Borowsky, Iris</author></authors></contributors><titles><title>Youth violence perpetration: what protects?

As compare to male's females have a high fear level of crime. The result also showed that females are more likely to support incapacitation and rehabilitation programs. The difference in attitude towards justice and crime system was also seen across different age groups.

What is the level of fear among students?
What is the attitude of students towards violence?
OBJECTIVES
The main objective of this study is
To assess the attitude of students towards violence
To assess the level of fear among students
To determine the attitude of the student towards the justice system
To determine the association between the level of fear and gender
To determine the association between, age, level of education and time spent on social media and violence.
METHODS
Research Design
The research design is defined as a plan which indicates a method by which a research study is conducted. Research design can be exploratory, causal in nature and descriptive. This study will be based on a descriptive research design. Research design selection is based on the sampling design, nature of the study, required data type, techniques used for data analysis and study area. A survey is usually a group of research method that is used to find the present status of the population. In this study, a questionnaire survey method will be employed to collect data. This method will be considered more appropriate because it will permit to measure the opinion of participants towards the crime and justice system.
Participants
Population in the research study consist of a group of individuals from whom the sample is drawn. In this study population will consist of university students who were studying criminology, psychology, criminal justice and legal dispute. Sampling is usually done in two ways: probability and non-probability sampling. In this study, random sampling will be used to determine the sample. In particular, stratified random sampling will be used, in which the population will be stratified into different groups which are known as strata. According to Creswell, stratification is very useful in a true representation of a population. This sampling will also ensure that all categories of disciplines are involved in the process of sampling
Informed Consent
Ethical approval will be taken from the college to carry out the survey. Before starting this survey, written informed consent will be taken from each participant in which they will be told about the study objectives. All the participants in this study will be assured of the privacy and confidentiality of the information.
Research instrument
The most commonly used method for data collection is observation, interviews, and questionnaires. For this study self-administered questionnaire will be used as an instrument to collect data. A questionnaire is defined as a precise and organized instrument that is used for collecting data from a large number of population. The questionnaire is of two types: structured and unstructured. In this study, the structured questionnaire will be used. A questionnaire will be formulated that comprised of different sections. Demographic information will be included in the first section and the other section will include questions regarding the attitude of participants towards justice and crime. In particular, the Likert scale questions will be developed to determine the attitude of students towards criminal justice and violence. This scale that will be used in this study has been validated by many researchers.
Data Collection
Different students who were studying criminology, psychology, legal dispute, and criminal justice will be approached through twitter, Facebook, and email. Data will be collected by using an online survey and students will be allowed to fill the questionnaire in 20 minutes.
Data Analysis
Data will be collected and then entered into the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) after coding. The data will be double-checked for any errors. Both descriptive and inferential statistics will be calculated. A chi-square test will be used to find the association between different variables.
