Abstract:
In order to maximize response rates, a survey of Alaskan village public
safety officers was conducted using both group-administration methods (n=32)
and mail-administration methods (n=29). Included in the survey were questions
related to officer job satisfaction and stress. It was expected that officers
who completed the group-administered survey would be more satisfied with
their jobs and report less stress. Non-parametric analysis of variance techniques
were used to compare the responses for each of the administration methods.
No statistically significant differences between the responses of the two
groups of officers were found. |
