초록

This study aims to examine the relationship between community policing and fear of crime in business owners based on community policing and social disorganization theories. As crime toward business owners may bring negative effects physically and mentally, our society considers it as a serious problem. Particularly, victims from this crime have experienced high level of stress emotionally. Therefore, the roles of neighborhood and police officers are emphasized to reduce fear of crime in business owners. To achieve the goals, we have used Process Macro analysis to examine the moderating effect of crime prevention activities. Specifically, we have categorized the activities as tool-based and behavior-based and compared them. As a result, behavior based crime prevention activities is statistically significant. Based on the results, we have discussed the importance of voluntary crime prevention activities by business owners.
