BBC 1/10/2018 News The Influence of Pre-Video Information and Appraisal Time on Judgments of Police Officer Use of Excessive Force Confrontations between police officers and civilians are sometimes videoed and made available to the public. In two experiments, we examined emotional regulation of such videos. Participants viewed a video of a confrontation between a police officer and a civilian and were asked if the officer used excessive force. In experiment 1, we investigated whether the information provided to participants prior to watching a police officer-civilian confrontation video (pre-video information: yes, no) might create a context that would allow them to regulate their emotional responses to the video. Additionally, we examined how that context might affect their judgments of excessive force used by the officer in the video. Results of experiment 1 showed that pre-video warnings influenced excessive force judgments.

Prof. Jerry Ratcliffe of Temple University explains why the silver bullets don't exist, but that EBP is still a valuable tool. Policing Insight - Subscription at source 1/10/2018 Analysis Effectiveness of Simulation-Based Learning in Basic Police Training Simulation-based learning is an important element of police training and further education. In the Bavarian police system (Germany), the curriculum of basic training includes 500 hours of simulation-based training for apprentices. This considerable amount of training necessitates a great deal of facilities and human resources. After a long period of practical experience, we investigated a training evaluation study in cooperation with the University of Würzburg (Germany) to measure the effectiveness of the simulation-based training in Bavarian police officer trainees. The results of the study indicate that the simulation-based training appears to be both subjectively and objectively effective. European Law Enforcement Research Bulletin 1/10/2018 Research article Using Predictive Policing to Prevent Residential Burglary In October 2015 the ‘Pilot Project Predictive Policing’ (P4) was started in the German federal state of Baden Württemberg. A predictive policing strategy was applied in the context of residential burglary. An evaluation study of the first six months of the pilot was carried out by the Max Planck Institute for Foreign and International Criminal Law. The article describes how the strategy was applied and summarizes the main findings of the evaluation study. Despite some positive findings the impact remains unclear and the expectable crime reducing effects appear to be moderate. Within the police force the acceptance of predictive policing is a divisive issue. Future research is recommended. European Law Enforcement Research Bulletin 1/10/2018 Research article Opening Up the Black Box: Understanding the Impact of Bodycams on Policing Police forces in countries all over the world are using body cameras or considering the introduction of these small wearable devices. Most impact assessments are based on projects within one geographical area or jurisdiction. Yet, the results are sometimes seen as an answer to the general question: ‘Do bodycams work: yes or no?’ In the first part of this article, I present a meta-analysis aggregating nine impact assessments from three different countries. The average results are positive prompting the conclusion that bodycams work. However, the overwhelming majority of research on bodycams comes from the United States or the United Kingdom. As police forces in other countries try to copy successful projects from abroad, they quickly discover that bodycams are about much more than just the technology. All bodycam programs need careful preparation and attention to implementation to enable the devices to work as intended. European Law Enforcement Research Bulletin 1/10/2018 Research article The State of Heritage and Cultural Property Policing in England & Wales, France and Italy Presenting a large threat to irreplaceable heritage, property, cultural knowledge and cultural economies across the world, heritage and cultural property crimes offer case studies through which to consider the challenges, choices and practices that shape 21st-century policing. This article uses empirical research conducted in England & Wales, France and Italy to examine heritage and cultural property policing. It considers the threat before investigating three crucial questions. First, who is involved in this policing? Second, how are they involved in this policing? Third, why are they involved? This last question is the most important and is central to the article as it examines why, in an era of severe economic challenges for the governments in the case studies, the public sector would choose to lead policing.
