82916 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 226 / Monday, November 27, 2023 / Notices 

Abstract: Serious assaults on law 

enforcement in the United States are a 

growing problem, with both assaults 

with injury and felonious killings of law 

enforcement officers trending upward 

(FBI, 2022). While the Law Enforcement 

Officers Killed and Assaulted (LEOKA) 

data collection answers many questions 

related to these assaults and deaths, 

such as the who, what, when, where, 

and how, the data does not answer why 

these assaults are happening. Without 

knowing and understanding why these 

assaults are happening, we cannot begin 

to prevent them. Outside of the previous 

studies conducted by the FBI, there is a 

lack of research into this question of 

why offenders assault police officers. In 

particular, there is a lack of research 

that looks at both the officer and the 

offender in such incidents, and how the 

relationship between the two impacts 

the assault. 

The purposes of this qualitative study 

are to examine the possibility of 

predicting assaults on officers and to 

use this information to prevent future 

assaults. To date, very few studies 

outside of the FBI’s Officer Safety 

Awareness Training (OSAT) research 

projects, have looked at these assaults 

from the perspectives of both the officer 

and the offender. By interviewing 

officers and offenders, this study seeks 

to gain a more thorough understanding 

of why these incidents take place, and 

the context surrounding them. Based on 

the recent trends and the modicum of 

previous research, it is expected the 

current study would make a large 

contribution to what is currently known 

about these attacks, and would play a 

substantial role in the preparedness, 

prevention, and mitigation of these 

incidents by informing those who 

develop training and operational 

practices. 

This mixed method research effort 

will use the Perpetrator-Motive 

Research Design (PMRD). PMRD is a 12- 

step methodological design that focuses 

on gaining a thorough understanding of 

the motivations of offenders. 

Interviewing incarcerated offenders 

allows for increased accessibility, 

increased sample size, interviewer 

security, and avoidance of ethical or 

potential legal entanglements which 

interviewers might be exposed to while 

questioning offenders still at large or 

whose cases have not yet exhausted the 

criminal legal process. Because PMRD is 

suited to identify and understand 

offender motives, the findings can be 

used in the development of training 

interventions for law enforcement 

officials which could improve officer 

safety. As part of the study, researchers 

will also seek to examine the incident 

reports associated with the assaults and 

the FBI criminal history record 

information of offenders. Researchers 

will also seek to obtain, examine, and 

use any body-worn camera or dashboard 

camera recordings associated with the 

assaults for research and training 

purposes.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The July 2024 CPS Disability 

Supplement will be conducted at the 

request of the Department of Labor’s 

Chief Evaluation Office. The Disability 

Supplement will provide information 

on the labor force participation rates for 

people with disabilities and those 

experiencing work-limiting health 

conditions or difficulties; the health 

conditions or difficulties they face; 

barriers to employment; challenges that 

make it difficult to perform their jobs; 

and job-related accommodations. 

Since the supplement was last 

collected in 2021, work patterns have 

changed, policies have changed, and 

assistive technologies have advanced. In 

the 2024 iteration of the Disability 

Supplement, a number of questions will 

be added and others will be dropped, 

and overall there is no additional 

burden on the respondents. 

New questions are being added to 

identify individuals with health 

conditions or difficulties that limit their 

ability to work, to complement data 

collected by the six disability questions 

currently included in the basic CPS, 

which ask a series of yes or no questions 

about whether a person:
