employed at the department where this study is being conducted. After
employment at the Dallas Police Department for over five years, the researcher
went on to complete a master’s degree in counseling. Since her employment at
the Dallas Police Department, she has worked in multiple positions and
agencies, both with police officers, their families as well as patients from the
general public. Since the researcher was at one point employed by
the Dallas Police Department in a similar capacity, and has maintained some
collegial relationships within the department, it is hoped this will facilitate rapport
and subjects will feel more comfortable being candid with the researcher. The

the case, these study participants would be disqualified from participation in this
study to better ensure it’s validity.
