Overview

The research addressed the gap in knowledge between characteristics of police-agency implementations aimed at community-oriented policing and an ambiguous success. The research used the Law Enforcement Management and Administrative Statistics (LEMAS) survey results data from approximately 2,800 police departments conducted in 2003 and published in 2006. The statistical analyses included correlate, regression, frequency cross-tabulation, factor analyses, and degree-of-independence testing. The study designated several LEMAS variable composite constructs to signify levels of agency success and types of agencies as modicums of community-oriented policing success. The primary composites that were considered in the degree-of-success research were organizational learning-based change and agency-innovative implementations. The findings suggested that certain composite variable constructs with high degrees of inherent organizational learning and innovation also had the most influence as characteristics of organizational change in community-oriented policing.
