Stated objectives of community policing include reducing fear of crime and increasing community cohesion, in part through decreasing physical and social disorder. Scales were developed to measure cohesion, disorder, and fear of crime in a sample of 377 adults in a midwestern city. The survey instrument was based on social scientific literature and was piloted with police officers and members of neighborhood organizations. Results indicated that the Cohesion Scale had an alpha coefficient of 0.74, the Disorder Scale had an alpha coefficient of 0.92, and Fear of Crime had an alpha coefficient of 0.82. In addition, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to determine the internal structure of measures and construct saliency. Factor analysis confirmed the presence of cohesion, disorder, and fear of crime and replicated the structure derived from theoretical analysis. In general, findings demonstrate baseline quantitative techniques required to evaluate community policing. 56 references, 1 endnote, and 9 tables
