Police contact in relation to crime perception and fear of victimization
The paper explores the quality of police contacts and its relationship with citizens’ perception of crime and personal fear of crime. Those constructs were evaluated on a sample of 2749 Croatian citizens using the Community Policing Evaluation Survey Scale. The results reveal that the quality of contact between the police and citizens in Croatia is slightly above the average and partly influenced by citizens' sex and age. Differences between the bivariate and partial correlations show that age and sex slightly influence the relationships between the variables describing the quality of police and citizens’ contact and the relationship between perception of crime and fear of victimization. The correlation between quality of police contacts and perceived crime is higher in females and increases with age. The correlation between quality of police contacts and fear of victimization is also higher in females and increases with age. In the male population, it mostly stagnates with age.
