Today, airports have a rigorous security focus on operational consistency from legislative and policy mandates being a priority rather than allowing airport operators satisfactory autonomy to adapt policy to their requirements (Poole in World Custom J, 3(2), 2009). Poole and Passantino (2003) stated that there is a tendency to try to treat all passengers the same, which can mean resources are not allocated to areas of greater risk. Resources are diverted to better technology and reducing staffing to process large numbers of passengers. Despite technological changes there are concerns security at airports can often focus on ethnic minority passengers. This study critically discusses the effects of security changes since 9/11 at UK airports on young passengers particularly the use of full-body scanning on ethnic minorities. In the study (n-709) respondents aged 18–30 years old were surveyed to consider their attitudes towards security at airports and in particularly their opinion of profiling passengers and the use of full-body scanning. This study demonstrated a high degree of support for security but a significant difference between how white and non-white respondents perceive airport security towards ethnicity.

机场安检扫描仪对少数民族旅客体验的影响

今天,机场严格把安全重点放在立法和政策要求的运营一致性上,而不是让机场运营商充分自主地根据他们的要求调整政策(Poole in World Custom J, 3 (2), 2009)。Poole 和 Passantino (2003) 指出,有一种趋势是试图对所有乘客一视同仁,这可能意味着资源没有分配到风险更大的地区。资源被转移到更好的技术上,并减少人员来处理大量乘客。尽管技术发生了变化,但人们担心机场的安全通常会集中在少数族裔乘客身上。这项研究批判性地讨论了自 9/11 以来英国机场安全变化对年轻乘客的影响,特别是对少数民族使用全身扫描的影响。在这项研究 (n-709) 中,18-30 岁的受访者接受了调查,以考虑他们对机场安全的态度,特别是他们对乘客画像和使用全身扫描的看法。这项研究显示了对安全的高度支持,但白人和非白人受访者对机场安全的种族看法存在显着差异。
