在学校部署警察,称为学校资源官员(SRO),是一种流行的学校预防犯罪战略。本研究测试是否特定的自律组织的作用,而不是存在或不存在的自律组织,影响学校犯罪和犯罪报告的执法不同。具体而言,与没有官员的学校相比,只有执法人员的学校,以及那些有官员也教和/或导师(混合SRO)的学校。该研究使用了2004年、2006年和2008年学校犯罪和安全调查的纵向样本(N = 480)。结果表明,犯罪记录和报告的水平普遍增加与自律组织的存在。此外,只有执法SRO的学校比非SRO学校记录了更多的犯罪,与假设相反,混合SRO的学校向执法部门报告了更多的犯罪。未来的研究应扩大本研究中使用的SRO的类型。
Deploying police officers, known as school resource officers (SROs), in schools is a popular school crime prevention strategy. This study tested whether specific SRO roles, rather than the presence or absence of SROs, influenced school crime and reporting of crimes to law enforcement differently. Specifically, schools with officers serving a law enforcement only role as well as those with officers who also teach and/or mentor (mixed SROs), were compared with schools without officers. The study used a longitudinal sample (N = 480) from the School Survey on Crime and Safety for the years 2004, 2006, and 2008. Results suggest that the level of crime recording and reporting generally increased with SRO presence. Further, schools with law enforcement only SROs recorded more crimes than non-SRO schools, and contrary to hypotheses, schools with mixed SROs reported more crimes to law enforcement. Future research should expand on the typology of SROs used in this study.
