Title: Project Marrella: Is Misconduct by NSW Police Officers Affected by the Number of Students in a Training Intake at the NSW Police College?
Summary: The number of students being trained at police colleges and academies can vary greatly and occasionally, very large numbers of students are recruited and trained. A perception exists that when larger than usual numbers of students are recruited and trained at police colleges and academies, the students trained in these large intakes are more likely to engage in misconduct once they become police officers than those trained in smaller intakes. This project, code named Project Marrella, tested the validity of this perception for NSW police officers using complaints as a proxy for misconduct. The results showed that students trained in large intakes were not more likely to be the subject of complaints in their first two years of service than students trained in smaller intakes. The perception that students trained in large intakes are more likely to engage in misconduct once they become police officers than trained in smaller intakes is therefore not valid for NSW police officers when complaints are used as a proxy for misconduct.
