BBC 5/1/2021 News Tolerance For Domestic Violence: Do Legislation and Organizational Support Affect Police View on Family Violence? Police attitudes toward domestic violence are essential occupational outlooks that can potentially shape police response to such violence. Studies on Chinese officers’ attitudes toward domestic violence are scarce even after the enactment of the Counter Domestic Violence Law (the DV Law) in China in 2016. Drawing upon survey data collected from 1,139 police officers from three provinces (Hubei, Hunan, and Jiangsu) in China, this study examined the effect of the DV Law, organizational support in policing DV, and regional differences on police officers’ tolerance for DV. The results showed that officers’ familiarity with the DV Law and supervisory support in policing DV reduced officers’ tolerance for DV, while agency training in handling DV cases enhanced police tolerance for DV. Regional differences were presented with Hubei officers being less tolerant of DV than Jiangsu officers. Policy implications are discussed. Police Practice and Research - Registration at source 5/1/2021 Research article Beyond Investigation-Relevant Information: A Content Analysis of Police Questioning There are two primary investigative interview objectives: gathering information to determine what happened and who did it and assessing the witness’s reliability. The present study examined to what extent investigative interviewers gather investigation-relevant information (IRI) compared to interviewee details (ID) to assess witness reliability. As part of a training course, 42 police officers participated as interviewers and mock witnesses by viewing a crime video. The interviews were recorded and rated for question type and question content through thematic analyses. IRI questions accounted for 78% of the questions asked, while ID questions accounted for 22% of the questions asked. The police officers assessed the way witnesses perceived this information and the attendant meta-processes and used more inappropriate questions than appropriate questions. These results help to elucidate the objectives of police interviews that should be considered when evaluating witness performances in laboratory settings and when developing effective interviewing protocols. Police Practice and Research - Registration at source 5/1/2021 Research article Interviewers’ Perceptions of Interviewing Aboriginal Australian Children Children from Indigenous cultures experience higher rates of abuse than non-Indigenous children, and their cases face extra challenges progressing through the legal system. When abuse is reported, an investigative interview is conducted with the child. The current study aimed to examine interviewers’ perceptions of interviewing Aboriginal Australian children. Sixteen experienced interviewers participated in semi-structured interviews about their experiences interviewing Aboriginal children. Thematic analysis revealed three perceived challenges: engaging the children, communication differences, and obtaining evidential details. Creating strong rapport with the child, simplifying language, and adapting questioning approaches were reported as key strategies to help overcome these challenges, but the interviewers voiced a need for more support and targeted resources to assist them in their roles. This study highlights the need for highly specialist interviewers versed in Aboriginal culture, and the need for future research into the appropriateness of contemporary protocols for children from minority cultural groups.
