Despite the Task Force on 21st Century Policing explicitly calling for police to engage youth in positive, non-enforcement contexts, studies have not systematically examined the impacts of such programs on positive youth development (PYD). These two studies examined the impact of a community-driven program that enables children to work collaboratively on community service projects with police (within a non-enforcement and non-surveillance context) on youths’ developmental assets. First, a pre/post evaluation was implemented with youth in six schools in California and New York City. Second, a randomized controlled trial was conducted in four schools in Compton. The program promoted youths’ Positive Values, Positive Identity, Empowerment, and Social Conscience. This program will not correct unjust policing, but through programs like this, police may begin acting as a fundamentally different type of resource for the children they should be serving and can promote PYD. Police Practice and Research - Registration at source 3/8/2021 Research article Are We All Equally Persuaded By Procedural Justice? A growing number of empirical studies has sought to explore differences in the effectiveness of the procedural justice model across people. Much of this new evidence points at the procedural justice association with both legitimacy and compliance being largely invariant. Here we expand the analysis of this procedural justice ‘invariance thesis’ by introducing a novel life-course perspective to the debate. Specifically, we focus on the variability of the procedural justice effect within individuals across time. To do so, we use mixed effects structural equation models and longitudinal data from a sample of 1,354 young offenders in the US reporting perceptions of the police, and a sample of 511 subjects of the Australian general population reporting on the tax authority. We find the procedural justice within-person association with legitimacy to be highly variant across individuals, which can be negative for more than 10% of subjects in the two samples used, while for at least another 11% of participants the relationship is twice as strong as the average or stronger.
