Swencionis, J.K., Pouget, E.R., Goff, P.A. (2021). Supporting social hierarchy is associated with White police officers' use of force. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), 118: 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2007693118. Three studies translate social dominance theory to policing, testing the relationship between individual officers' endorsement of social hierarchies and their tendency to use force against residents. This article demonstrates a link between officer psychological factors and force. These findings are consistent with our hypotheses and suggest a need to examine the role that maintaining social hierarchies plays in police behaviors. Future research must continue to investigate these relationships, especially with larger samples of non-White officers, and information about officers' patrol environments.
