Notes
The
occupation
of
police
officer
is
a
profession
with
many
unique
characteristics
.
Research
on
police
work
has
shown
that
officers
are
continuously
exposed
to
threats
,
must
maintain
a
constant
vigilance
against
crime
,
feel
as if they
must
be in
control
of
every
situation
, and
work
in a
profession
in
which
the
attribution
of
blame
is
common
. This
type
of
working
environment
can
be
very
stressful
.
Past
research
has
shown
that
stress
can
lead
to
anger
and
acts
of
aggression
. The
present
study
examined
anger
and
aggression
in
police
officers
. The
sample
consisted
of
officers
from the
Waterbury
,
Connecticut
Police
Department
, as
well
as
undergraduate
students
studying
criminal
justice
at
Central
Connecticut
State
University
. The
data
failed
to
support
the
hypothesis
that
police
officers
would have
higher
scores
on the
Buss-Durkee
Hostility
Inventory
(BDHI)
than
criminal
justice
undergraduate
students
.
Additionally
, the
data
marginally
supported
the
hypothesis
that
veteran
officers
would have
higher
BDHI
scores
than
less
experienced
police
officers
.
Future
studies
need
to
examine
additional
police
departments
in
varying
sizes
and
locales
.
