• Procedural justice during police-citizen encounters: The effects of process-based policing on citizen compliance and demeanor (2011, background): “…disturbers, wrongdoers, and persons for whom complaints were received) and disputants (whose role of either suspect or victim is unclear, or may be both) were selected (Terrill, 2003; Terrill et al., 2003; Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002; Mastrofski et al., 2002; Terrill, 2005; Reisig et al., 2004).”
• Race and Officer Decision Making: Examining Differences in Arrest Outcomes between Black and White Officers (2006, background): “The overall number of officer–suspect encounters and the number of encounters per community vary considerably, which makes it difficult to estimate stable hierarchical models with acceptable levels of bias (Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002).”
• The Trauma Lens of Police Violence against Racial and Ethnic Minorities (2017, unknown): “Terrill & Mastrofski (2002) found that legal antecedents of police force include persons who resist arrest and persons who raise the safety concerns of police officers, while nonlegal antecedents include an individual’s demographics.”
• Violence Between the Police and the Public (2006, background): “…as police patrols in inner-city areas with a high density of nightlife activity; professional duties liable to lead to friction, such as arrests; or the frequency of encounters with criminals with a high aggressive propensity (Binder & Scharf, 1980; Garner et al., 2002; Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002).”
• Departmental and citizen complaints as predictors of police coercion (2005, methodology): “Those factors most consistently predicting police coercion include citizens who are male, display a disrespectful demeanor toward the police, are antagonistic or aggressive, and show signs of intoxication (Chevigny, 1969; Friedrich, 1977; Reiss, 1968; Terrill and Mastrofski, 2002; Toch, 1969; Westle”
• A Systematic Social Observation Study of Police De-Escalation Tactics (2018, background): “…racial and ethnic minorities (Nix, Campbell, Byers, & Alpert, 2017; Paoline, Gau, & Terrill, 2017, but see Worrall, Bishopp, Zinser, Wheeler, & Phillips, 2018) and members of the lower class are more likely subjected to police force (Alpert, Dunham, & MacDonald, 2004; Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002).”
• Examining police use of force: a smaller agency perspective (2008, methodology): “The independent variables included in the model have been posited or shown to predict police use of force in prior work (see Garner et al., 2002; Terrill and Mastrofski, 2002).”
• Just Following Orders: A Meta-Analysis of the Correlates of American Police Officer Use of Force Decisions (2014, background): “Few studies have assessed whether persons who suffer from a mental illness have force used against them at higher rates, but most report that officers are no more likely to use force against these citizens (Johnson, 2011; McCluskey et al., 2005; Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002).”
• Police use of force: a transactional approach (2005, background): “…throughout the article—meant to include both verbal and physical forms of force. force (Chevigny, 1969; Klockars, 1995), potential determinants of force (Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002; Worden, 1995), and the number of officers and citizens involved in force incidents (Langan, Greenfeld, Smith,…”
• Crisis Intervention Teams and People With Mental Illness (2012, background): “Evidence suggests that it is a combination of substance abuse related activity and hostile demeanor that result in the use of force during police encounters (Cordner, 2006; Kaminski et al., 2004; Terrill & Mastrofski, 2002).”
