Gives an evidence-led perspective on the police response to antisocial behaviour (ASB). By starting with the views of victims and the public about the effectiveness of the police management of ASB and working back from these, the research is able to develop new insights in terms of what the police can do to reduce the social harm caused by ASB within and across communities. Based upon an analysis integrating data from a survey of 5699 ASB victims, the British Crime Survey and Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary's assessment of police system quality. 9365 INNE In Vubis: http://192.87.209.9/webopac/FullBB.csp?WebAction=ShowFullBB&RequestId=693050_80&Profile=Default&OpacLanguage=dut&NumberToRetrieve=20&StartValue=1&WebPageNr=1&SearchTerm1=2010.2.79288&SearchT1=&Index1=Index1&SearchMethod=Find_1&ItemNr=1

Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) commissioned this research to obtain evidence of public attitudes towards anti-social behaviour and police response, and to highlight potential implications for the police in their approaches to anti-social behaviour.  In particular, the research identified what people understand by the term 'anti-social behaviour'; who they feel ought to be responsible for dealing with it; their expectations of key agencies such as the police; and the conditions under which people report particular incidents/behaviour.  The research measures attitudes towards contact with the police when reporting anti-social behaviour and identifies key areas for improvement. 9365 POLI

In Spring 2010, Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) carried out a review of anti-social behaviour (ASB) in England and Wales. This included asking victims about their experience of reporting ASB to the police, and inspecting the quality of the processes that forces use in tackling and responding to the problem. Working with the Police Science Institute at Cardiff University, the results were used to answer the question of how the police can best tackle ASB. 9365 ANTI
