Abstract

This study sought to understand how officer, individual, and incident-level characteristics influence officer decisions to arrest, detain in emergencies, and refer individuals to services relative to taking no action in encounters with persons in mental health crises. This study allowed for the analysis of informal, scarcely examined outcomes.
