在过去的12年里，学校使用警察的情况急剧增加，这主要是由于美国司法部资金的增加。这项研究使用了学校犯罪和安全调查的数据，以评估在学校增加警察与学校犯罪水平和学校对犯罪的反应的变化之间的关系。我们发现，随着学校增加使用警察，他们记录了更多涉及武器和毒品的犯罪，并向执法部门报告了更高比例的非严重暴力犯罪。将警察安置在学校可能会增加向执法部门移交性质较轻的犯罪案件，并增加对武器和毒品犯罪的记录，这就需要进行更严格的研究，以更仔细地评估与这种流行和昂贵的做法有关的学校气氛和学校安全结果。
The use of police in schools has increased dramatically in the past 12 years, largely due to increases in US Department of Justice funding. This study used data from the School Survey on Crime and Safety to assess the extent to which the addition of police in schools is associated with changes in levels of school crime and schools responses to crime. We found that as schools increase their use of police, they record more crimes involving weapon and drugs and report a higher percentage of their non-serious violent crimes to law enforcement. The possibility that placement of police officers in schools increases referrals to law enforcement for crimes of a less serious nature and increases recording of weapon and drug offenses requires that more rigorous research be carried out to assess more carefully the school climate and school safety outcomes related to this popular and costly practice.
