Abstract Although an intersectional approach has been taken by various social scientists to examine criminal justice issues, our literature review reveals that, to date, no studies have explored citizen perceptions of police from this perspective. As researchers, we challenge the convenience of using merely collective demographic measures; instead, we suggest that overlooking social class, gender, and race subgroup interactions masks important variations in patterns and etiological understandings of public attitudes toward the police. Using data obtained from citizens who had recent contact with police, we take an intersectional approach to examine the main and combined effects of gender, social class, and race on citizen perceptions of police. The main purpose of this study is to address a significant gap in literature.

种族，阶级和性别在预测警察满意度方面的相互影响

摘要尽管各种社会科学家采取了交叉研究的方法来研究刑事司法问题，但我们的文献综述表明，迄今为止，还没有研究从这种角度探讨公民对警察的看法。作为研究人员，我们挑战仅使用集体人口统计方法的便利性。相反，我们建议忽略社会阶层，性别和种族子群体之间的相互作用，以掩盖公众对警察态度的模式和病因学理解的重要差异。我们使用从最近与警察接触过的公民那里获得的数据，采用交叉研究的方法来检验性别，社会阶层和种族对公民对警察观念的主要影响和综合影响。这项研究的主要目的是解决文学方面的重大空白。
