面对新冠肺炎疫情，警察面临着各种新的挑战，这可能会给警察带来额外的压力。这项混合方法研究调查了封锁后三个月期间警察的压力。在一项在线调查中，来自奥地利、德国、瑞士、荷兰和西班牙的2567名警察（77%为男性）于2020年春季在每个国家的三个测量点参与了调查。三水平生长曲线模型评估了应变的变化及其与应激源评估、情绪调节和训练准备的关系。为了增加调查结果的背景，关于官员的主要任务、压力源和危机措施的自由反应答案被归纳编码。平均而言，官员们似乎可以容忍这种流行病，随着时间的推移，压力会略有下降。尽管国家之间存在很大差异，但66%的差异发生在个人之间。性别、工作经验、压力源评估、情绪调节和准备显著预测压力。感染风险和缺乏沟通成为主要的压力源。官员的报告可以对政府、组织和个人在大流行期间的应对策略产生影响。为大流行做准备需要三条主要途径：1)制定明确的法律，并通过媒体传播提高公众遵守；2)做好后勤准备；3)在警察培训中提高压力调节技能。
Facing the COVID-19 pandemic, police officers are confronted with various novel challenges, which might place additional strain on officers. This mixed-method study investigated officers' strain over a three-month-period after the lockdown. In an online survey, 2567 police officers (77% male) from Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Spain participated at three measurement points per country in spring, 2020. Three-level growth curve models assessed changes in strain and its relation to stressor appraisal, emotion regulation, and preparedness through training. To add context to the findings, free response answers about officers' main tasks, stressors, and crisis measures were coded inductively. On average, officers seemed to tolerate the pandemic with slight decreases in strain over time. Despite substantial variance between countries, 66% of the variance occurred between individuals. Sex, work experience, stressor appraisal, emotion regulation, and preparedness significantly predicted strain. Risk of infection and deficient communication emerged as main stressors. Officers' reports allowed to derive implications for governmental, organizational, and individual coping strategies during pandemics. Preparing for a pandemic requires three primary paths: 1) enacting unambiguous laws and increasing public compliance through media communication, 2) being logistically prepared, and 3) improving stress regulation skills in police training.
