  • Many RCTs and quasi-experimental evaluations report large reductions in citizen complaints of inappropriate police behavior and misconduct when BWCs are deployed on officers relative to non-BWC-wearing counterparts.

    “Many randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-experimental evaluations report large reductions in citizen complaints of inappropriate police behavior and misconduct when BWCs are deployed on officers relative to non-BWC-wearing counterparts (e.g., Ariel et al., 2015;Braga et al., 2018;Jennings et al., 2015), whereas a smaller number does not find any noteworthy impacts (e.g., White et al., 2”
  • The extent of behavioral modification under control conditions cannot be assumed to be the same as that under treatment conditions.

    “the extent of the behavioral modification under control conditions cannot be assumed to be the same as that which has taken place under treatment conditions”
  • Some data are emerging to support the hypothesis that people on all sides of a police encounter will behave better when they know they are being recorded.

    “Some data are emerging to support the hypothesis (Katz et al. 2014;White 2014;Ariel, Farrar, and Sutherland 2015).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
