Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the most comprehensive reference ever written for individuals interested in law enforcement selection. The chapters contain meta-analyses (statistical reviews of the literature) investigating the validity of methods used to predict police performance. These methods include education requirements, cognitive ability, background variables (e.g., military experience, arrest record, discipline problems at work), personality inventories, interest inventories, physical agility tests, assessment centers, and interviews. The first chapter in the book is a short primer on meta-analysis that informs the reader about the purpose of meta-analysis and how to interpret the meta-analysis tables contained in the book. Chapter 2 describes the methods used to conduct the meta-analyses for this project. Chapters 3-11 list the meta-analysis results for the various predictors of police performance. Chapter 12 describes a meta-analysis of the relationships among criteria (e.g., performance ratings, discipline problems, commendations), Chapter 13 describes a meta-analysis of the relationships among selection methods, and Chapter 14 describes a meta-analysis of the relationship between the various criteria and sex, race, age, and tenure. Chapter 15 summarizes the previous chapters and identifies future research needs.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates whether 4-year college degree programs in criminal justice prepare police officers better than non-criminal justice programs. The research examines the performance and education of 180 officers in 2 agencies, randomly selected from a group of 360 sample subjects. There were 60 officers in each of 3 educational groups. Group one consisted of police officers with a high school education only; group two consisted of officers with a 4-year degree in criminal justice; group three was composed of officers with a 4-year degree in a non-criminal justice field. Officers in each group were compared as to performance level differences. Performance was measured according to number of commendations and awards, number of disciplinary actions, number of injury and sick days, and the number of years of military service. It was also evaluated through supervisor ratings, using the performance evaluation form of the international association of chiefs of police. Findings showed that patrol officers with a 4-year college degree perform at a higher level than patrol officers with a high school diploma only. No significant differences were found between the service records of officers with non-criminal justice degrees and officers with criminal justice degrees. It is recommended that future research focus on establishing the relationship between a college education and superior performance.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between higher education and law enforcement performance is still under debate. Since the early 1900's policy makers have not come to a consensus to make college education a qualification for law enforcement employment nationally. The disagreement is not whether higher education has value, to the extent which it improves police performance is not held in consensus. Policy makers cite a lack of substantial results to validate making a college degree a qualification of law enforcement employment. Researchers have unsuccessfully attempted to provide suggestive results for the benefits of law enforcement officers possessing a college education against those who do not. Historically, the inability to correlate a significant relationship between higher education and performance leaves the subject in quandary. Using Negative Binomial Log Linear Regression, this researcher collected performance data from several police departments and certified police officers in the central Texas region. An electronic survey was provided to certified police officers to capture data on the independent variable professionalism. The study's collected data was cross referenced, and the officers badge numbers were replaced with a generic identifier to protect their identities. The names of the police departments were also removed from this study. Setting the significance level at .05, the three research questions for this study were answered: Is there a significant statistical relationship between higher education and police performance, does the type of degree matter, and is performance statistically significant to police performance? The results of the study suggest levels of education predicts a positive relationship with law enforcement officer performance, degree types do not matter, and professionalism is not statistically significant to police performance.
