The Times - Subscription at source 3/7/2020 News Police Strategy Development: the New Zealand Police Prevention Strategy In 2009, the New Zealand Police implemented a comprehensive program called Policing Excellence, which by 2011 became Prevention First. This strategy was designed to place victims of crime and the prevention of crime at the foreground of their service delivery, with the view that in the longer-term crime would decrease. This article reviews the influence of the strategy on crime in New Zealand for the period 2009 to 2018 and finds that although the strategy was initially successful, in later years the strategy has not been as successful. The review also finds that the effectiveness of the New Zealand Police has decreased significantly during this period and argues for a more balanced strategy that includes an improved form of response to increase public satisfaction with the organization’s service delivery. Police Practice and Research - Registration at source 3/7/2020 Research article Rapport Quality in Investigative Interviews: Effects on Open-Ended Questions and Free Recall Responses In this study, we examined investigative interviews to identify relationships between interviewer–interviewee rapport quality, interviewers’ question format, and interviewees’ free recall responses. Specifically, we studied investigative interviews conducted with children and people with disabilities – vulnerable populations who tend to be reluctant to cooperate during investigative interviews. Studies suggest improving rapport quality to improve interview outcomes, but the research remains largely theoretical and experimental. Using actual field data from transcripts of 137 investigative interviews in South Korea, we evaluated rapport quality for each interview and subsequently measured the number of open-ended questions and free recall responses. Our analysis revealed a significant relationship between the rapport quality formed in the early stages of the investigative interview, frequency of open-ended questions, and frequency of free recall responses. In legal contexts, a victim’s testimony is considered more credible when free recall responses are provided as much as possible. Therefore, this study has strong implications for efforts targeted at increasing the effectiveness of investigative interviews.

As a means of identifying which level of policing is most resistant to EBP, the present study describes results from interviews with 38 sworn and civilian Canadian police executives on their perceptions as to which level of policing – leadership, middle management, or the frontline – is most resistant. The results indicate that although there was no consensus among our participants, the middle management level was perceived as most resistant to EBP for a wide array of reasons. Ultimately, the results have practical implications for police practice that surround the need for a greater adoption of change. Police Practice and Research - Registration at source 3/7/2020 Research article Policing Mental Health: the Composition and Perceived Challenges of Co-Response Teams and Crisis Intervention Teams in the Canadian Context Due to an increase in interactions between the police and persons with perceived mental illness (PwPMI), police services have begun deploying specialized crisis responses to more adequately address these calls. One such response is a Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) that is comprised of frontline officers who are specially trained on mental health; another is a Co-Response Team (CRT) where an officer is paired with a mental health practitioner. With police services presumably shifting scarce resources to deploy these responses, it is paramount to understand the challenges they may endure. With little Canadian research on these responses to-date, the purpose of this paper is to document which Canadian police services deploy these responses and how their composition varies by jurisdiction, as well as their perceived challenges. Through a mixed methodological approach, the results indicate that most of the participating services deploy varying compositions of a CIT and/or CRT, but are perceived to endure a variety of challenges which may impede the overall success of these responses.

It highlights the steps necessary to move from theory to implementation: the process and impact of change of a unique, innovative police/partnership policy within the framework of Scottish Policing. Through auto-ethnography it reports on utilising an asset-based approach for reducing offending, improving health, well-being and local community conditions by supporting and building on its assets, connecting people and creating conditions for respectful, meaningful, partnership working where all partners can make a valuable contribution.
