The police department in a large city had been receiving quite a lot of bad press regarding the treatment by their officers of citizens reporting crimes of theft. The citizens felt that the police officers were less than polite and caring. The new chief of police was concerned and decided to do something about the poor image of the department. Each citizen who reported a theft was interviewed by an independent researcher who used a questionnaire to determine the citizen's level of satisfaction with the way he or she had been treated by the officer dealing with the theft report. On some of these occasions a regular police officer who had had no special training in officer-citizen relations was sent out. On some occasions a police officer who had completed an in-house course designed to
train inter-personal relation techniques was sent. On some occasions, police officers who had undergraduate degrees in social psychology were assigned. The chief was interested in whether training made a difference in the satisfaction ratings provided by the citizens. Because assignment of theft report to type of training was not random, a non-parametric procedure was selected to compare citizen satisfaction under "no-special training," "in-house training," and "university training" conditions. What non-parametric test would you choose to answer the question? What will be an ideal response?
