摘要:This paper intends to review studies on the perception of police uniform concerning colour and the components of the uniform. Although the police uniforms are perceived to be the unifying factor or element within the policing sector there have been studies, which suggest that police uniform can influence a negative or positive perception. Most of the past and recent studies have demonstrated that colour and other components of police uniform significantly influence perception in regards to police uniforms. Coherently, the dark and grey police uniforms have been noted to depict aggressiveness or negativity, which in turn, perceptions. Besides, multiple uniform components such as hats, gloves, vests, baton, and sunglasses have been observed to have a significant influence on perception in regards to police officers.
