对警察不当行为的传统解释通常采取微观层面关注越轨官员或宏观层面关注警察部门自上而下的组织。在这两个层次之间的是不当行为的社交网络。这项研究使用芝加哥六年内16,503起投诉和15,811名警察的数据重建了这些网络。我们研究个人层面的因素与收到投诉,这些不当行为网络的基本属性,以及相关的投诉官员共同命名的因素。我们发现,警察不当行为的发生率与属性,包括种族,年龄和任期,近一半的警察在更广泛的不当行为网络中的不当行为联系。我们还发现,某些二元因素,特别是资历和种族,强烈预测网络关系和群体不当行为的发生率。我们的研究结果提供了关于利用共同投诉网络结构减少不当行为的可能方法的可操作信息。
Conventional explanations of police misconduct generally adopt a microlevel focus on deviant officers or a macrolevel focus on the top-down organization of police departments. Between these levels are social networks of misconduct. This study recreates these networks using data on 16,503 complaints and 15,811 police officers over a six-year period in Chicago. We examine individual-level factors associated with receiving a complaint, the basic properties of these misconduct networks, and factors related to officer co-naming in complaints. We find that the incidence of police misconduct is associated with attributes including race, age, and tenure and that almost half of police officers are connected in misconduct ties in broader networks of misconduct. We also find that certain dyadic factors, especially seniority and race, strongly predict network ties and the incidence of group misconduct. Our results provide actionable information regarding possible ways to leverage the co-complaint network structure to reduce misconduct.
