Despite previous research on relations between African Americans and police, little literature has focused on the lived experiences of college-educated African American males when interacting with police. In the study 12 participants were interviewed. The analytical approach was grounded theory, which identified seven themes that most of the men had in common. One shared lived experience expressed the need for collaborative and inclusive policies that prevent bias, police brutality, and wrongful arrest and detention of the African American community. …

Perceptions Of 9-1-1 Telecommunicators High-Stress Emergency Calls, Danielle Holland
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Many research studies have been conducted on the effects of high-stress emergency calls on emergency personnel, such as police officers and firefighters.

The purpose of this qualitative case study was to determine how 9-1-1 telecommunicators perceived and responded to high-stress emergency calls. The theoretical framework was based on Bandura’s self-efficacy theory and social cognitive theory. The study was guided by three research questions that focused on (a) the short- and long-term effects of stress experienced by 9-1-1 dispatchers, (b) the aspects of calls that telecommunicators perceived …
