N2  - The rates at which police officers were murdered in American cities were calculated. City characteristics and police department characteristics were correlated with these rates, and a number of significant correlates were identified. City characteristics were more often associated with the police officer murder rate than were police department characteristics. Various multiple correlational techniques accounted for between 32% and 74% of the variation in the rates at which police officers were murdered.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
