Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when police abuses and errors make the headlines, it is important to understand just what goes into the decisions that police make when they are confronted with various crime scenarios in the line of duty. Required to respond within the law, many officers are able to respond in a legal manner to crime situations in which court decisions are written clearly and with easily applied guidelines. But what happens when those decisions and laws are written in a way that invites interpretation and varies from situation to situation? Based on a case study of New York City police officers, this important volume analyzes how officers contend with often-ambiguous laws in the face of specific crime scenarios. In addition, the author explores other influences on police decision making, including officer characteristics and attitudes, and makes policy recommendations in an effort to encourage the reinforcement of legal guidelines so that the rights of individuals are appropriately balanced with the duty to control crime. Based on a survey of nearly 1,300 officers' responses to specially designed hypothetical crime scenarios, this study illustrates how police officers are likely to react with regard to the law in these situations. While officers tend to act legally where the laws are clear, less clearly articulated laws leave the police with a variety of different options for action in ambiguous situations. For instance, in weapons scenarios, the survey showed that officers would often take advantage of ambiguity in the law with regard to how they may respond. In drug scenarios, officers will increase their tendency to do a search if the situation is slightly ambiguous, though they will decrease their search responses when the situation appears to be highly ambiguous. Eterno carefully examines the various responses and the laws that are meant to guide what police may or may not do in given situations, concluding that better laws and bright-line rules will help to check and balance the need to fight crime aggressively while preventing the abuse of authority that may arise in questionable circumstances.

Book excerpt: This thesis is a study of police officer morale and issues related to it. An anonymous survey was administered to 432 members of the New York City Police Department of various ranks. The 26-item questionnaire sought member attitudes and opinions on morale related issues. Additionally, survey respondents were asked to give biographical information and a self-assessment of their current state of morale. Included in the literature review is an examination of the evolution of the study of police morale and morale issues related to the NYPD. The survey and the morale scale based on it were all developed specifically for this project and the organization studied. The data was gathered from a convenience sample composed mainly of police officers. The sample closely resembled the larger NYPD in regards to gender and ethnicity. The data was analyzed by using a series of statistical tools: t- tests, factor analysis, regression analysis, content analysis, and correlation. A scale was created to measure each survey subject's total morale from the correlation between individual survey items and officers' self assessed morale scores. The study concluded that the majority of police officers in the NYPD at the time of the study (June, July, and August of 2001) had low morale. Supervisory issues heavily influenced morale. In particular, officers attributed low morale to the lack of recognition and unrealistic expectations from supervisors and the perception that police administrators did not support them. Low morale was manifest in officers' negative attitudes in regards to police administrators and organizational support. Officers were especially critical of the NYPD as a career choice for themselves and others and perceived the Department as an institution in decline. The: data analysis suggested that there is a relationship between morale and the following variables: rank and years of police service. The relationship between morale and ethnicity or work assignment was ambiguous and is in need of further research. Additionally, content analysis of officers' remarks revealed widespread dissatisfaction with pay and the quality of supervision. The implications from this study were that morale was linked to issues of support and supervision. Furthermore recruitment and retention problems for police departments could be a manifestation of low morale and attempts to alleviate those problems must also address the issue of low police morale.
