Additionally, surveys revealed many hold perceptions that these behavioural predictors of violence are valid, yet empirical evidence of validity is sparse and contradictory. The present study used frame-by-frame analysis of videotaped police arrest encounters to explore the validity of nine behavioural cues in predicting whether the arrestee violently resisted arrest. The results revealed that four of the nine behaviours were predictive of violence, yet notable variation occurred across racial groups. The validity of the remaining behavioural cues remains equivocal at this time.

Informed by semi-structured interviews conducted with PREVENT police officers, the article highlights pragmatic barriers to realising collaborative counter-radicalisation; this is important given the third objective of PREVENT: to work with a wide range of institutions where there are risks of radicalisation. The article departs from analyses that have examined PREVENT in the context of suspect profiling; rather, the focus is on illuminating the implementation, (re)configuration and performance of PREVENT policing. The article concludes by advocating the necessity for evidence-based research - this proffers pragmatic implications for the governance of counter-terrorism.

The Standard 4/6/2018 News Police Liaison Officers At Football: Challenging Orthodoxy Through Communication and Engagement This article expands upon research on the use of Police Liaison Teams (PLTs) within public order policing operations surrounding football fixtures. Using a Participant Action Research approach, the article reports on PLT use across multiple events and locations with different police forces, different personnel and fans and divergent command perspectives, as well as comparative data from PLT and non-PLT events. It identifies how accountability dynamics associated with the classification and management of risk in the policing of football may explain the continued reliance on more coercive policing tactics, as well as a number of other barriers that hinder the development of PLT use at football. Despite this, the article provides evidence that PLTs can offer similar benefits to the policing of football as they do to the policing of protest. In particular, we argue that developing such approaches will make the policing of football more human-rights complaint.
