No full textLeadership matters to the police: Managing emotional labour through authentic leadership
No full textIMPACTPolicing is stressful, and this stress is amplified as a result of chronic under-resourcing and escalatingred tape. Frontline managers of police play a crucial role in mitigating police stress, and improvingtheir wellbeing. The research in this article highlights that police managers also shape theturnover intentions of officers. The implication is that policing organizations need to support theirmanagers and leaders to develop qualities that advance the wellbeing of their staff, in order toaddress workplace stress and turnover.ABSTRACTThis article examines the impact of leadership on the behaviour of one type of street level bureaucrat(SLB): police officers’ wellbeing and turnover intentions. The findings address a gap in understandinghow authentic leadership practices affect SLBs who undertake emotional labour. The methodsinvolved analysing 220 surveys from Italian police officers using structural equation modelling. Thefindings show moderate-to-low mean scores for authentic leadership and police officers’relationship with their supervisor, and that these variables were significant in explaining wellbeingand turnover intention outcomes. The implication of the research is that continual subjection topoor levels of leadership and management support will erode wellbeing, placing police officersare at a higher risk of negative mental health outcomes over time

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
