Overall mean percent change for constructs and associated statistics without Ariel et al.'s 10 global studies

95% CI
Construct Mean % change Lower Upper k z p(z) Q p(Q) τ
Complaints against officer −18.4 −32.7 −1.0 16 −2.062 .039 23.535 .073 0.222
Use of force −12.8 −27.1 4.4 16 −1.490 .136 48.093 .000 0.278
Assault on officer/officer injuries/resistance 34.2 −0.1 80.1 5 1.956 .050 1.322 .858 0.000

Note: Percent change is based on the relative incident rate ratio (RIRR). For values of RIRR >1, the percent change is RIRR − 1. For values of RIRR <1 it is 1 − RIRR. A RIRR reflects the difference‐in‐difference percent change in counts. Negative numbers reflect lower counts for the BWC condition. k = number of effect sizes; z = z‐test; p(z) = p‐value for z‐test; Q = homogeneity statistic; p(Q) = p‐value for homogeneity statistic; τ = square‐root of the random effects variance component.
