BBC 1/11/2022 News Connecting Officer Appearance with Officer Safety: A Survey of Police Officers’ Perceptions of Uniforms and Accoutrements A burgeoning body of literature has demonstrated the relevance of officer appearance for public perceptions of police. Much less research, however, has explored how officer appearance can impact officers’ perceptions of themselves, including with respect to safety. Drawing upon survey data from a sample of sworn police officers (N = 238) from the Queensland Police Service, we empirically investigate the effects of different uniforms and accoutrements on officers’ perceptions of their own safety, comfort, and power. Our results reveal that officers’ perceptions vary as a function of equipment (e.g., shirt color, vest style, headwear). Our results also reveal that officers’ perceptions of safety correlate with the other perceptual outcomes tested as part of our research. We discuss our results with respect to existing literature regarding officer appearance as well as policing policy and practice.
