Mail Online 23/3/2021 News Do You Hear What I Hear?: A Comparison of Police Officer and Civilian Fairness Judgments Through Procedural Justice Procedural justice theory posits that people care at least as much about how a decision was made as they do about the outcome. Although policymakers and researchers argue that procedural justice-based interventions can improve police-civilian interactions, little research has examined how authorities evaluate decision-making processes. This research examined whether police officers and civilians evaluate fairness in police-civilian encounters through the same mechanisms. 69 police officer and 113 civilian participants, recruited through Qualtrics professional panels and Amazon’s Mechanical Turk respectively, read a vignette describing a police-civilian interaction in which the civilian explained why they violated the law (procedural justice) or were interrupted by the officer (procedural injustice) and made evaluations of the interaction. Multiple-group analyses using bootstrapping revealed that both police officers and civilians rated the procedural justice condition as more fair because they rated the officer as more respectful and trustworthy and because they perceived the civilian had more voice than in the procedural injustice condition. Further, direct and indirect pathways through respect were not present when police officer pathways were allowed to vary, suggesting police may rely on social information differently than civilians.

Policing Insight - Subscription at source 23/3/2021 Feature, Interview, Opinion Do Effects of Arrest on Recidivism Vary By Neighborhood? A Contextual Analysis of the Milwaukee Domestic Violence Experiment Does the effect of arrest for misdemeanor domestic assault on suspect recidivism vary by characteristics of the neighborhood in which the individual suspect resides? This analysis combined 1990 Census data for Milwaukee with data on 1133 domestic assault suspects randomly assigned in 1987–1988 to arrest vs. warning in the Milwaukee Domestic Violence Experiment (Sherman 1992). Outcomes were measured by the prevalence of one or more new arrest for misdemeanor domestic assault in the 6 months after the randomly assigned response to the presenting incident. The analysis compared models using only individual-level suspect characteristics to models that combined individual data with Census tract characteristics relevant to community stakes in conformity and social disorganization. The models show substantial effects of structural characteristics of community context that moderate arrest effects on recidivism. Arrested suspects with medium individualstakes in conformity show an 18% reduction in the prevalence of repeat domestic assault, but arrestees who live in Census tracts with medium levels of communitystakes in conformity show a one-third (32%) greater likelihood to repeat domestic assault than suspects in those medium stakes Census tracts who were not arrested.
