Answer to Question 1

o criminals from attempting to commit crime.
In 1972 and 1973, researchers tested this theory when they chose three
o research areas.
Over a 12-month period, police applied one of three patrol strategies including
o control beats, proactive beats, and reactive beats.
Control beats use normal preventive measures where a single automobile drove
o the streets when not answering calls for service.
On the proactive beats, the level of preventive measures was increased, with
o automobile patrols being doubled or tripled.
On the reactive beats, preventive patrol was eliminated entirely, and patrol cars
o only answered calls for service.
The results of the study were surprising because researchers found that increasing or decreasing preventive patrol had little or no impact on crimes,
o public opinion, the effectiveness of the police, police response time, traffic
accidents, or reports of crime to police.
