- Describing the scale and composition of calls for police service: a replication and extension using open data, Langton et al. (2022). Police Practice and Research. Outcome recorded: descriptive only.
The contribution is made in replication and extension of analyses reported elsewhere in the United States [...] A small number of incidents consume a disproportionately large amount of police officer time. Emergency demand is concentrated in time and space, and can differ between types of demand. The findings further highlight the potential implications of radically reforming police forces in the United States.
