Summary

"This review of international experience on measuring police performance focuses on methods used in nine cities, provinces and countries. ...The paper describes the method used by the police in evaluating their performance in terms of effectiveness and/or efficiency, and discusses the limitations of these methods. For example, the tools for measurement that police organisations use may not always be comparable or applicable to all police services and the variables they select may also depend on other factors that are independent to the organisation. ... This review provides a summary of different methods used on the basis of an almost universal question: How to measure the ability of the police to meet the diverse demands and expectations of citizens, leaders, and the police themselves through their activities?"--Pages 3-5.
