Quick Study: Predicting Police Escalation

Within the first 27 seconds of a routine traffic stop, Professor Jennifer Eberhardt can predict whether that encounter will lead to an escalation. In a groundbreaking study, Eberhardt found that the first 45 words spoken by police officers during traffic stops can predict with over 70% accuracy whether the encounter will escalate. By analyzing body camera footage from nearly 600 stops involving Black drivers, Eberhardt's team identified a “linguistic signature” that often precedes handcuffing, search, or arrest. In the latest episode of our Quick Study video series, Eberhardt discusses how these findings could revolutionize police training and improve community relations by leveraging the rich data contained in body camera footage. #gsbquickstudy
