  • Title: Factors related to elderly crime victims' satisfaction with police service: the impact of Milwaukee's "Gray Squad".
    Author: Zevitz RG, Gurnack AM.
    Journal: Gerontologist; 1991 Feb; 31(1):92-101. PubMed ID: 2007481.
    Abstract:
    This study tests the hypothesis that specialized police services for the elderly affect the way the elderly view the police in general. Older victims dealt with by elderly victimization specialists were more satisfied with the efforts of local police than crime victims who had not received specialized services. This latter finding has important implications for training police officers to deal effectively with elderly victims of crime.
