In 2014, the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission (WSCJTC) shifted from a paramilitary “warrior”-style training to a guardian model focused on community participation, social justice, procedural justice, and de-escalation and crisis intervention skills. The current study examines the effects of crisis intervention team (CIT) training components in the WSCJTC guardian curricula. A quasi-experimental pre-/post-survey design was employed comparing responses from a sample of 139 WSCJTC Basic Law Enforcement Academy (BLEA) recruits who completed BLEA in 2015 with two comparison groups—(1) 296 BLEA graduates who completed training prior to implementation of the guardian training who had no prior CIT training and (2) 851 BLEA graduates who completed training prior to implementation of the guardian training who had prior CIT training. Additionally, the study examined the effects of a WSCJTC’s 40-hour CIT training through a pre-/post-survey of 78 law enforcement personnel who completed the voluntary 40-hour CIT in-service training. Significant training effects were observed for the 8-hour and 40-hour CIT training programs. Results offer support for continued implementation of the 8-hour CIT training component in BLEA and the 40-hour CIT training. Implications for continued improvements to law enforcement training are discussed.

2014 年，华盛顿州刑事司法培训委员会 (WSCJTC) 从准军事“战士”式培训转变为关注社区参与、社会正义、程序正义以及降级和危机干预技能的监护人模式。当前的研究检查了 WSCJTC 监护人课程中危机干预团队 (CIT) 培训组件的效果。采用准实验性调查前/调查后设计，将 2015 年完成 BLEA 的 139 名 WSCJTC 基本法执法学院 (BLEA) 新兵样本的回答与两个对照组进行比较——(1) 296 名在此之前完成培训的 BLEA 毕业生(2) 851 名在实施监护人培训之前完成培训的 BLEA 毕业生，他们曾接受过 CIT 培训。此外，该研究通过对 78 名完成自愿 40 小时 CIT 在职培训的执法人员进行前/后调查，检验了 WSCJTC 40 小时 CIT 培训的效果。在 8 小时和 40 小时 CIT 培训计划中观察到显着的培训效果。结果为继续实施 BLEA 中的 8 小时 CIT 培训部分和 40 小时 CIT 培训提供了支持。讨论了持续改进执法培训的意义。结果为继续实施 BLEA 中的 8 小时 CIT 培训部分和 40 小时 CIT 培训提供了支持。讨论了持续改进执法培训的意义。结果为继续实施 BLEA 中的 8 小时 CIT 培训部分和 40 小时 CIT 培训提供了支持。讨论了持续改进执法培训的意义。
