| Designing Research Methods for Law Enforcement StressIn October 2024, the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) faced renewed scrutiny when Officer Dustin Dean, previously reprimanded for firing non-lethal rounds at a TV crew during the 2020 protests, was placed under investigation again. New body camera footage revealed Dean firing a 40 mm non-lethal launcher at protesters, raising concerns about the cumulative stress experienced by officers during prolonged civil unrest and its impact on decision-making. (Note, this 40 mm non-lethal launcher typically utilizes projectiles composed of foam, rubber or sponge, and is commonly used for crowd management, compliance, or training purposes).Assignment InstructionsResearch Design: Propose a comprehensive research design to assess stress levels among LMPD officers involved in the 2020 protests and subsequent investigations. Consider the following elements:Data Collection Methods: Identify appropriate qualitative and quantitative methods (e.g., surveys, interviews, physiological assessments) to gather data on stress indicators.Sampling Strategy: Determine how you will select participants to ensure a representative sample of the affected officers.Ethical Considerations: Outline measures to protect participants\\\’ confidentiality and well-being during the study.Measurement Tools: Select or develop specific instruments to measure stress levels. Justify your choices based on their reliability and validity in similar research contexts.Data Analysis Plan: Describe the statistical or thematic analysis techniques you will employ to interpret the collected data.Potential Challenges: Identify possible obstacles in conducting this research (e.g., participant reluctance, data accuracy) and propose strategies to mitigate these issues.Create a 10-slide presentation summarizing your research proposal. Submit it either as a PPT or PDF slides. | |
