Media and public perceptions of the police: examining the impact of race and personal experience (2011, background): “…and Tuch (2005b) found that differences between Hispanics and Whites disappear when controlling for demographic factors, ‘suggesting that, were it not for these demographic factors, Hispanics and Whites would not differ appreciably on satisfaction with the police’ (Weitzer and Tuch 2005b, p. 293).”
Trust in the Police in 16 European Countries (2007, background): “For example, indifference in the line of duty, outright neglect of duties, incompetence, venality, extortion, discrimination, excessive force or brutality definitely create distrust among those citizens who need police services (see also Frank et al. 2005; Weitzer and Tuch 2005 ).”
Race, Class or Neighborhood Context: Which Matters More in Measuring Satisfaction with Police? (2009, background): “Recently interest in studying the impact of neighborhood contexts on residents’ perceptions of police has emerged (e.g., Cao et al., 1996; Dunham & Alpert, 1988; Reisig & Parks, 2000, 2003; Sampson & Jeglum-Bartusch, 1998; Weitzer, 1999, 2000; Weitzer & Tuch, 2004a, 2005a, 2005b).”
Reassessing and Redirecting Research on Race and Sentencing (2013, background): “Beyond this, however, as illustrated in Figure 2, race can influence outcomes at each of the noted stages in multiple ways, both in terms of the source of the racial influence and its meaning.”
Shaping Citizen Perceptions of Police Legitimacy: A Randomized Field Trial of Procedural Justice (2013, methodology): “…has explored the relationship between specific assessments of police and generalized perceptions of police legitimacy (see Elliott, Thomas, and Ogloff, 2011; Fischer et al., 2008; Reisig, Bratton, and Gertz, 2007; Weitzer and Tuch, 2005), we use the QCET data to test our hypothesized model.”
