    sociological literature has focused considerable attention on how well people like their local police. As part of their focus, scholars have studied topics such as police-community relations (Gabor & Low, 1973; Johnson & Gregory, 1971; Trojanowicz, 1972; Trojanowicz & Moore, 1988; Wilson & Kelling, 1985), citizens' perceptions of the police (Albrecht & Green, 1977; Harris, 1981; McDowell, 1984; Peek, Lowe, & Alston, 1981; The Plague, 1981), and p…

Data for the study were obtained from a random sample (n = 1,835) of respondents 15 years of age and over. Separate multiple regression techniques were utilized to assess the effects of predictor variables on fear of crime.

  • Self-Evaluation of Black and White College Students

    Keith D ParkerARTICLEEthnic studies review1986

    A major issue in the social psychology of race relations has been the axiom that blacks tend to manifest lower self-esteem than whites. Much of the empirical support for this hypothesis came from studies demonstrating that blacks are stigmatized and subjected to a variety of unpleasant and derogatory experiences. However, these studies are limited in two respects: first, by their use of small, nonrepresentative samples (primarily nursery school a…
