Policing has long been thought of as a job with high danger and pressure. Why and what type of people join the police force is becoming one of the more important issues in criminal justice research. This article examines career choice behavior of police students in Taiwan to help police departments develop recruitment strategies. Findings were obtained using survey research questionnaire with nineteen suggested reasons given to the freshmen of the Central Police University in Taiwan. The study found that most of the students are males from a lower- or middle-level socioeconomic family status. The major reasons that the students gave for selecting a policing career were for "good salary and fringe benefits" and "influence from parents." Some statistical differences exist between the reasons given by the male and female students, but less difference exists when the three levels of socioeconomic backgrounds are considered. In addition to the analysis of the responses to the questionnaire, a brief discussion of the above findings and the implications for police recruitment is presented. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Since 1982, in order to raise the global technology competitiveness, the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) in Taiwan, ROC has offend about five hundred million US dollars each year to support applied research in technology development through a program called 'Science and Technology Projects (STP)'. This research reports an operational model called IPRCE (Input-Process-Result-Channel-Effect) for management and performance evaluation. To achieve operational effectiveness and efficiency of the STP, this research conducts three forums among members of industry, government, Legislative Yuan, and academia. In the first forum, the evaluation criteria and items in IPRCE are evaluated and approved. In the second forum, the weighting system for IPRCE criteria is determined for reference in actual STP evaluation. From the weights of the five stages in IPRCE, it is found that the professionals focus on the effectiveness rather than efficiency. In the third forum, the processes of STP operation are investigated thoroughly and comprehensive suggestions induced. According to the suggestions of professionals, the MOEA plans to do some milestone changes: 1. to change proposal operation from bottom-up to top-down, 2, to open the STP to industries, 3. to reduce the proposing process from 18 months to 6 months.

To help the Taiwanese private sector to compete globally, the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) in Taiwan initiated a programme called the 'Science and Technology Project (STP)' in 1982. Through this programme, the government offers over 10 billion NT dollars per year to support technological research and development. Furthermore, the STP is executed by statutory bodies (non-profit research institutes) funded by the MOEA. For the purposes of budget allocation and control, an annual performance evaluation of STP is needed, though it is a difficult task. Although the MOEA has established a system of performance evaluation and has practised it for years, there is no consensus on the fairness of this system among research institutes and other interested parties competing for funds. A more elegant evaluation system is needed. The purpose of this research is to establish a reliable system of performance indicators for the STP. Our study reviewed the whole performance indicators system of R&D projects and proposed a feasible revision. The system of performance indicators can be further divided into three subsystems: (1) indicators for research results, (2) indicators for industrial co-operation, (3) indicators for technology diffusion.
