The first style of policing discussed is the watchman style. The watchman style policing method refers to a style in which the officer prefers to diffuse an existing situation before resulting in more extreme measures, such as arrest. An officer enforcing the watchman style of policing is most likely centered around communication with the involved parties in order to settle disputes. The officer most likely will discuss the aspects of the crime, including the steps leading up to the crime taking…

There are several occupations for which emergency standby are an accepted part of the role. Examples include firefighting, emergency medical assistance (ambulance crews), and the U.S. Coast Guard. The issue appears to be problematic only for policing. Why? The issue appears to be problematic because citizens expect police officers to make their rounds in their neighborhoods so they can feel safe and secure.

Sir Robert Peel’s take on policing has been altered to today’s social norms. This is due to the desensitization citizens have developed for police presence due to over a hundred of years of police service to communities. The adaptation of crime fighting tactics is a direct result of the rise, severity and different types of crime that pollute today’s society. The most recent change in policing is the increase of community and problem oriented policing, because of the changing times; police…

near-term impact on youth homicide; implementing and adapting the intervention; and evaluating the intervention’s impact. Problem-oriented policing works to identify why things are going wrong and to frame responses using a wide variety of often untraditional approaches by identifying the problem, analyzing it, figuring out an appropriate response, evaluating and then adjustmenting the response. In addition to policing strategies, improved and increased discipline was also likely to be a major…

Community policing may require special training for patrol officers to be most effective and for the community to trust and listen to options and advice from them on how to deter crime (Stein & Griffith, 2017, p 140). There are general skills that are needed to interact with the public (people skills). There may also be additional skills needed for the area. Each community may have different challenges that the officers will be faced with. Example, the majority of the people may know very…

The data also points at the idea of civilizing officers or what some call a civilizing effect, meaning that when on camera you’re more likely to think before you act (Sierra-Arevalo, 2015). It’s just the idea that if you know you’re on camera, then you’re more likely to act more appropriate, knowing that the footage could be use against in cases of misconduct (Sierra-Arevalo, 2015). Police body cameras just better improve relations with suspects and members of the community, showing then that…

There are many different research methods at hand for researchers to use. The first method being experimental and quasi-experimental research which helps to identify the cause and…

In reviewing Vollmer professional policing principles, Community policing, CompStat and PEPPAS there is no comparing the different concepts. In my opinion each of these concepts are more detailed analysis of each other. More or less related to the continuous understanding and development of policing as a whole. Each of these models interaction with each other in the development of policing the public and learning vital position of police officers in society. For example, Vollmer seen that…

Community oriented policing is a shared program being instituted in more and more police departments and communities across the nation. The responsibilities of the citizens of the community and the patrolling officers are linked together to create a healthy relationship between the two and to have a safe community. This type of policing also allows officers to use more useful tactics to control crime and at the same time engage the people. The thought behind this shared program is to get the…

Problem Solving Problem solving is when a process a responder helps the person find alternatives and solutions to the problem. When relating problem solving to a crisis, it involves actively listening for imprecise thinking on part of the person in crisis. Therefore, when problem solving, critical thinking is an important characteristic. This allows individuals to filter through which information is accurate, or relevant to crisis. Often, police officers respond to incident where the…
