Police Professional 16/1/2021 News The UK Government is ‘scrapping’ unconscious bias training – so is it still needed in policing? In December the UK Government confirmed that it was scrapping standalone unconscious bias training for civil servants, citing a report that suggested it was ineffective, and could even be counter-productive; but Police Ethics Advisor Montell Neufville believes such training – particularly when delivered as part of wider learning on diversity, cultural competency or risk management – still has an important role to play in policing.

We use a 2019 cross-sectional survey of seven police departments (N = 234) to examine the relationships between officers’ job satisfaction and their public service motivations (PSM), perceptions of person-environment fit with three referent groups – top managers, supervisors, and coworkers – and their perceptions of self-legitimacy. The results suggest that organizational fit with top managers, PSM, and officers’ self-legitimacy are all positively related to job satisfaction, explaining nearly half of the variance in the sample. Using multiple regression models, we explore the potential mediating effects of fit on PSM but find little support for this proposition. Among individual-level control variables that were assessed, only tenure was significantly (negatively) related to job satisfaction. Journal of Crime and Justice - Registration at source 15/1/2021 Research article Self‐reported Experiences and Consequences of Unfair Treatment By Police This study uses data from the most recent wave of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (wave V of Add Health) to examine the predictors of experiencing unfair treatment by police. It also considers the degree to which unfair police treatment is associated with a range of social‐psychological and behavioral outcomes in adulthood, including depressive symptoms, self‐efficacy, suicide ideation, and drug use. Finally, this study examines whether any of the relationships between unfair police treatment and adult outcomes differ by race and ethnicity. Most broadly, results suggest that the odds of reporting ever experiencing unfair treatment by police are disproportionately higher among minorities (and more specifically non‐Latino Blacks), men, and those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Furthermore, such experiences are detrimental to all of the social‐psychological and behavioral outcomes in adulthood, even after accounting for the differences in who is most likely to experience unfair police treatment via propensity score methods. Lastly, some of these consequences seem to be more pronounced among non‐Latino Whites compared with non‐Latino Blacks, which we believe is attributable to the unfortunate reality that unfair police contact continues to be a normative life‐course event for Black people in the United States.
