For example, the London police have embarked upon an aggressive campaign to foster better community relations with the Cypriot community by favoring applicants who have the necessary linguistic skills. They have found "when they got those officers that the engagement with these communities was tremendous, which then reflected in their ability to fight crime" (Hilpern 2004)
Because of the language barrier and poverty, Chicago's almost entirely legal, longstanding (most are the children of immigrants of the 1940s wave of migration to the area) Hispanic population remains hostile to the police and reluctant to report crime. Instead, the preferred method of dealing with crime is to rely upon the community rather than larger social institutions such as the police to enforce order (Mazurek & Malin 1991:9)
Some theorists maintain that personality can be studied only by observing external, social behavior; the majority of psychologists today, though, define personality as originating within the individual. These theorists emphasize that personality may exist in the absence of other people, and may have aspects that are not visible (Ewen)
3). In some cases, such content analysis methods do not employ any specific counts as described above, but rather seek to identify recurring sequences of emotions or feelings, which they may or may not link up with changes in vocal qualities (paralanguage variables) or body movement (kinesic variables) (Gottschalk)
influenced by heredity, maturation, and experience), although it is not more genetically determined or biologically rooted than is personality. In fact, the extent to which temperament is more genetically-based than is personality remains an empirical question (Hartup et al
To the extent that alchemists unconsciously projected their internal experiences of transformation into their work with matter, their images are most relevant to the work of psychological growth and healing. In fact, the alchemists themselves were frequently cognizant that they were using a symbolic language to talk about the phenomenology of inner experience (Henderson & Sherwood)
This unity is Jung's conception of the whole self, or as he terms it, the 'Self' as described in an essay in 1928: "Individuation means becoming a single, homogeneous being, and, in so far as 'individuality' embraces our innermost, last, and incomparable uniqueness, it also implies becoming one's own self. We could therefore translate individuation as 'coming to selfhood' or 'self-realization'" (Jung, 1928, par
xiii). This approach allows the researcher to "compare and analyze text, creating new interpretations in the process" (Noblit & Hare, 1988, p
In general Jungian terms, individuation refers to the process by which individuals are able to realize the potential that is innate in everyone. Therefore, the term "individuation" is connected with the development of the individuals' personality through people distinguishing their own uniqueness which will ultimately be different from collective thought and values (Scategni, 2002)
Focused on the outer world, the ego is oblivious to inner and underlying complexes, archetypes, and energies; at midlife, though, according to Jung (1928), the outward flow of libido ebbs; libido recedes from the world and begins to flow back toward its source in the collective unconscious. And as this happens, the ego, following the course of libido, begins to turn inward as well (Washburn, 1990)
Terrorism has now been added to the list of concerns which police have to deal with in the current political world. In order to cover all of the necessary areas which police must be well-versed in, mentioned above in #6, it appears that expertise in these is only available in a university setting and therefore a higher education requirement should be required for all police officers (Chappell 10)
Gilbert Skinner summed up the purpose of an assessment center when he said it is "a procedure for simultaneous measuring of several persons, performing a variety of simulated work exercises, with their behavior being observed and recorded by trained evaluators. Or more simply, the Assessment Center lets a person try out for a job without the expense of being in the job for six months to a year" (Coleman 4)
Legitimate solutions to situations involving regulation of law involve moral decisions that enforce the original intent of the law. Therefore, the police must act with a morality based on knowledge of the law and the reasons for sustaining and upholding that law (Herbert 799)
Called the Crisis Intervention Simulation Survey (CISS), it is designed to assess officers' knowledge of their skills in this area and their knowledge of these skills. The CISS puts forth 4 types of crisis situations "with a response sheet with open-ended questions and bipolar, Likert-type emotion scales" (Meerbaum 1)
