Results suggest that Black men were more likely to be the targets of excess suspicion, less likely to be granted leniency by prosecutors, no more likely to be convicted, but, if convicted, more likely to be incarcerated than White men.

College of Policing 5/6/2022 Feature, Interview Compassion Fatigue, Compassion Satisfaction, and Burnout, and Their Associations With Anxiety and Depression in UK Police Officers: A Mixed Method Analysis Professional quality of life (ProQoL) variables, compassion fatigue (CF), compassion satisfaction (CS) and burnout are understudied in the police population. Here, we examine any associations between ProQoL and anxiety, depression and personal QoL. Study 1: A cross-sectional survey (N = 100) demonstrated CF and burnout are significantly associated with higher anxiety and depression, whereas CS is significantly associated with lower anxiety and depressive symptomology. When controlling for CS, CF is still significantly associated with higher anxiety and depression. Study 2: Semi-structured interviews (N = 6) revealed themes of perceived awareness and personal impacts of ProQoL. Police interventions should focus on ProQoL variables as the root cause of common mental health complaints. Police Journal 5/6/2022 Research article Introduction to the Special Issue—policing in Pacific Island Countries and Territories: Navigating Culture, Context, and Organizational Terrain The aim of this special issue is to showcase research on policing in Pacific Island countries and territories. Specifically, the issue is concerned with contextual responses to police service provision, the tensions that affect police–community relations, issues of police legitimacy, the role of context and organizational culture, and the changing face of crime and criminality. We have given primary consideration to papers that report empirical research and reflect on how the policing remit in the Pacific region extends beyond mandated functions. These include roles related to stakeholder demands informed by emerging crimes and rule of law, donor intervention, and the social, political, or economic realities of the specific Pacific Island countries or territories.
