Abstract

In 1974 the results of widely publicized police experiment, the Kansas City Preventive Patrol Experiment (KCPPE), were released. The experiment generated considerable dialogue among police practitioners and researchers alike, who debated such issues as the policy implications of the research findings and the methods employed for obtaining those findings. This author was one of several who wrote critiques of the KCPPE. In a recent issue of Evaluation Review, an article critiquing my critique was published. This note represents my response to that article.
