The perceived effectiveness of coercive and non-coercive strategies on turning points was examined by interviewing 34 practitioners and 30 high value detainees in East Asian and Western jurisdictions. Each recounted an interview with an initially uncooperative detainee who became cooperative, or an initially cooperative detainee who became resistant or silent. Analyses of interview narratives identified perceived turning points in the practitioner-suspect relationship associated with clear outcomes. Independent of jurisdiction, 56% of the non-coercive strategies were associated with cooperation, yielding reliable information in 49.4% and true admissions in 20.0% of the cases. In contrast, coercive strategies were perceived as more ineffective (58.9%) than effective (14.6%) in securing information. Physical coercion, intimidation and deception were most frequently acknowledged to yield false information. These findings suggested prioritisation of non-coercive social and physical interview strategies and international consensus on best practices.

While a number of studies have documented the correlates of intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrated by police officers, no study to date has examined the influence of self-control (i.e., self-regulation) and the desire-to-be-in-control on this study population. Therefore, data obtained from the Police Stress and Domestic Violence in Police Families in Baltimore, Maryland, 1997–1999 were analyzed to determine what influence, if any, these variables have on IPV. Results from logistic regression models indicated that self-control was not related to IPV, but the desire-to-be-in-control was found to be positive and significant in predicting the dependent variable. This study provided further evidence that IPV may be the result of a person’s desire to attain and maintain power and control over their partner’s behaviour.
