Book Description
This thesis is a study of police officer morale and issues related to it. An anonymous survey was administered to 432 members of the New York City Police Department of various ranks. The 26-item questionnaire sought member attitudes and opinions on morale related issues. Additionally, survey respondents were asked to give biographical information and a self-assessment of their current state of morale. Included in the literature review is an examination of the evolution of the study of police morale and morale issues related to the NYPD. The survey and the morale scale based on it were all developed specifically for this project and the organization studied. The data was gathered from a convenience sample composed mainly of police officers. The sample closely resembled the larger NYPD in regards to gender and ethnicity. The data was analyzed by using a series of statistical tools: t- tests, factor analysis, regression analysis, content analysis, and correlation. A scale was created to measure each survey subject's total morale from the correlation between individual survey items and officers' self assessed morale scores. The study concluded that the majority of police officers in the NYPD at the time of the study (June, July, and August of 2001) had low morale. Supervisory issues heavily influenced morale. In particular, officers attributed low morale to the lack of recognition and unrealistic expectations from supervisors and the perception that police administrators did not support them. Low morale was manifest in officers' negative attitudes in regards to police administrators and organizational support. Officers were especially critical of the NYPD as a career choice for themselves and others and perceived the Department as an institution in decline. The: data analysis suggested that there is a relationship between morale and the following variables: rank and years of police service. The relationship between morale and ethnicity or work assignment was ambiguous and is in need of further research. Additionally, content analysis of officers' remarks revealed widespread dissatisfaction with pay and the quality of supervision. The implications from this study were that morale was linked to issues of support and supervision. Furthermore recruitment and retention problems for police departments could be a manifestation of low morale and attempts to alleviate those problems must also address the issue of low police morale.
