This study reports the findings of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving more than 400 police officers and the use of body-worn cameras (BWC) in the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD). Officers were surveyed before and after the trial, and a random sample was interviewed to assess their level of comfort with technology, perceptions of self, civilians, other officers, and the use of BWCs. Information was gathered during ride-alongs with BWC officers and from a review of BWC videos. The collection includes 2 SPSS data files, 4 Excel data files, and 2 files containing aggregated treatment groups and rank-and-treatment groups, in Stata, Excel, and CSV format: <ul> <li>SPSS: officer-survey---pretest.sav (n=422; 30 variables)</li> <li>SPSS: officer-survey---posttest2.sav (n=95; 33 variables)</li> <li>Excel: officer-interviews---form-a.xlsx (n=23; 52 variables)</li> <li>Excel: officer-interviews---form-b.xlsx (n=27; 52 variables)</li> <li>Excel: ride-along-observations.xlsx (n=72; 20 variables)</li> <li>Excel: video-review-data.xlsx (n=53; 21 variables)</li> <li>Stata: hours-and-compensation-rollup-to-treatment-group.dta (n=4; 42 variables) </li> <li>Excel: hours-and-compensation-rollup-to-treatment-group.xls (n=4; 42 variables) </li> <li>CSV: hours-and-compensation-rollup-to-treatment-group.csv (n=4; 42 variables) </li> <li>Stata: hours-and-compensation-rollup-to-rank-and-treatment-group.dta (n=12; 43 variables)</li> <li>Excel: hours-and-compensation-rollup-to-rank-and-treatment-group.xls (n=12; 43 variables)</li> <li>CSV: hours-and-compensation-rollup-to-rank-and-treatment-group.csv (n=12; 43 variables)</li> </ul>
