Abstract

This study utilized the social exchange theory to examine motives of disciplinary officers participating in the Hong Kong 2005 Law Enforcement Torch Run®. Motive similarities were found between the 400 male and 103 female officers from the disciplinary forces of Police Force, Correctional Services, Customs and Excise Services, Fire Services, Government Flying Services, Immigration Department, and the Independent Commission Against Corruption. The nature of espoused motives, in their order of popularity was Purposive, Material, and Solidary in nature. However, among those participants who returned year after year, the primal motives were of the Purposive and Material in nature. Promotional strategies to encourage greater participation were developed according to the findings.
