The traditional model of professional policing encourages isolationism and dispassion, tactical training, and incident-driven policing. The community policing model, on the other hand, espouses shared responsibility between police and community, measures effectiveness in qualitative terms, and revolves around shared problem identification and problemsolving. In addition to operational skills, officers are trained in facilitation, empowerment, crisis intervention, and group dynamics. Many self- efficacy theories, such as those developed by Bandura, Eden, Leiter, and Johnson can be used in designing a community policing model and related training. Bandura's guided mastery modeling seems appropriate in terms of raising officers' self-efficacy while reducing resistance or fear of change. 16 references
