Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of big data analytics (BDA) on predictive policing, particularly examining the mediating role of crisis management in this relationship.
Theoretical Framework: The research is anchored in the domain of big data analytics, focusing on its application within law enforcement for enhancing predictive policing capabilities. The study explores how crisis management serves as a linkage between data analytics and predictive policing practices.
Method: The study gathered data from 450 individuals working across various police departments in Dubai, utilizing a questionnaire to collect responses. The analytical approach was based on Structural Equation Modeling, conducted using AMOS software.
Results and Discussion: Findings from the research indicate that big data analytics significantly boosts predictive policing and crisis management. Importantly, crisis management was identified as a mediating factor between big data analytics and its efficacy in predictive policing. These results suggest that big data analytics not only directly enhances predictive policing but also improves it indirectly through effective crisis management.
Research Implications: This study underscores the importance of integrating big data analytics into police operations to advance predictive policing capabilities. It highlights the dual benefits of big data analytics in both direct application and enhancement through crisis management processes.
Originality/Value: This research contributes to the limited but growing body of literature on the application of big data analytics in predictive policing. It offers practical guidelines for police forces, especially within the UAE, to better harness big data for improving their operational effectiveness and crisis management strategies. The study also discusses broader implications for both practice and ongoing research in this evolving field.
