Abstract
Problem‐oriented policing (POP) has been in existence for approximately 30 years. Very little research has examined officer perceptions pertaining to their engagement in POP. This research utilizes interviews with captains in the Charlotte–Mecklenburg Police Department to explore officer behaviors and perceptions pertaining to their engagement in POP. A content themes analysis conducted on the captain interviews provides a discussion regarding what the captains feel is necessary to successful POP projects, what they feel has contributed to the success/failure of their projects, what they have learned from their engagement in POP efforts, how they have implemented POP and how they supervise officers engaging in POP.
