Knowledge and opinions of police officers on issues of family violence: Influence on their interventions

This article tries to establish what degree of knowledge and opinions has a group of policemen in questions of familiar violence, and how this knowledge flows and/or interferes in the final result of its labor interventions. For the development of the present article, were used the results obtained in the investigation, which has its same name, "Knowledge and opinions of the police operators in questions of family violence: Influence of its interventions". It is possible to emphasize that, as an active member of one of the most important police institutions of de country (Buenos Aires police Providence), I have detected several criteria errors on behalf of some police members in the treatment of questions of family violence, as they not always act their best, without offering therefore the suitable answers that the citizenship needs. Not by lack of commitment for the populations, in my criterion, and as the present demonstrates it but by a general lack of knowledge on this thematic.
