Abstract: A total of 3,701 police/citizen confrontations from 1983 were examined in order to determine if female officers behaved differently than male officers during violent confrontations with citizens. The data was collected by the New York City Police Department using a "Firearms Discharge/Assault on Officer Report" form. The analysis included situations involving assaults, firearms discharge and assaults with firearms discharge. Officer gender, duty status, length of time in the department, prior firearms discharge and the nature of the threat were examined. The study was especially concerned with the role that officer gender plays during violent confrontations with citizens of New York City.
