“…All of the other studies relied on police officers as respondents and show that the police officers' expressed willingness to report is negatively related to the respondents' assessments of misconduct seriousness (e.g. Hickman et al, 2016;Klockars et al, 2000Klockars et al, , 2006Kutnjak Ivkovi c et al, 2018Kutnjak Ivkovi c and Sauerman, 2013;Lim and Sloan, 2016;Lobnikar and Me sko, 2015;Long et al, 2013;Peacock et al, 2022;Porter and Prenzler, 2016;Westmarland, 2005;Wu and Makin, 2019).…”

“…Similarly, studies of police officers as respondents indicate that perceptions of severity of discipline the respondents deem appropriate or expect to be issued by the police agency tend to be negatively related to the code (e.g. Kutnjak Ivkovi c et al, 2018;Lim and Sloan, 2016;Peacock et al, 2022;Wolfe and Piquero, 2011).…”

PurposeThis study examines the effects of diffuse support for the police, specific support for the police, experience with the police, and demographic characteristics on citizens' own expressed willingness to report police misconduct. The authors surveyed immigrants from Croatia who now reside in Germany and Ireland to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the relative role these factors play in regard to immigrants' willingness to report misconduct in Croatia.Design/methodology/approachThe study, based on a survey of 358 Croatian immigrants to Germany and 226 Croatian immigrants to Ireland, utilizes multivariate logistic regression models that assess factors affecting the respondents' expressed willingness to report police misconduct in their homeland and their current countries of residence.FindingsThe authors' multivariate models reveal that diffuse support for the police (e.g. confidence in the police and perceptions of widespread police corruption) plays a strong and significant role in explaining the respondents' willingness to report misconduct in the authors' initial models. However, the direct effect of the diffuse support completely disappears in most of the models once scenario-specific police integrity measures (e.g. views of expected discipline severity and estimates whether police officers would report misconduct) are included as well. With the exception of age, other demographic characteristics and contact with the police were not systematically and significantly related to the respondents' willingness to report.Originality/valueThis is the first empirical study to provide an in-depth exploration of various factors associated with the citizens' willingness to report police misconduct.

“…Integrity violation of public officials has been a widespread concern of the public and academic community (Lim, 2019;Peacock et al, 2020& Wintruba, 2018.

The purpose of this review is to provide a glimpse of antecedents at individual and organizational levels to better understand the issue of police integrity. The search process of the previous study was conducted through a reputable electronic database of Web of Science, Scopus, and ScienceDirect and was limited to the area of ethics and integrity of the police. The relevant articles found on the topic have been repeatedly reviewed to ensure the authenticity of the results. The literature findings indicated that antecedents of individual traits such as accountability, spiritual values, moral values, and professionalism is important in sustaining police integrity. Meanwhile, organizational characteristics that influence strengthening police integrity are organizational rules, ethical training, and ethical leadership. Notably, it has been a long interest of scholars on the issue of police integrity, and many recent kinds of research have been conducted to explore more antecedents relevant to the current challenges of police work. Future research should be undertaken to scrutinize various antecedents of external influences of police, such as communities' perception and trust, political authority influences, and economic factors that lead to integrity building of police.
