The participants were 294 final-year high school students from the Sunshine Coast region of Queensland (Australia). The study employed a pre- and post-survey design that measured self-reported driving behaviour, sensation seeking, and self-reported future driving intentions of young drivers. T-tests between pre- and post-responses identified statistically significant positive changes in young driver intentions after the program when compared to their previously self-reported behaviours. Further analysis of the changes between the pre- and post-surveys demonstrate that the LAW program has a greater effect on female participants and those with higher levels of sensation seeking. The findings of this study indicate that police-led, school-based driver education programs may be an effective way of altering the driving intentions of young novice drivers and in turn promoting greater road safety.

The skills required to conduct an effective interview are not innate requiring police officers to be formally trained. The structural design, teaching, and assessment methods employed in the delivery of investigative interviewing training are assumed to directly impact a trainee’s level of engagement and level of interviewing knowledge and skills acquired. This paper uses a qualitative case study approach to observe how core investigative interviewing skills are acquired through formal training. Our findings suggest a relationship between the adult learning construct adopted, the levels of learner engagement generated, and the achievement of desired learning outcomes. Our findings will inform future designs of investigative interviewing training that seek to maximize both learning outcomes and returns on resource investments.
