Public Administration and DevelopmentSummary: The linkage between accountability and performance is not always positive. This study proposes that contextual factors affect the accountability-performance link. The central question we explore in this research is how citizens' trust and police culture influence the link between police accountability and performance. We conducted in-depth interviews and compared the stop and frisk practices in both New York City in the United States and Taipei City in Taiwan, which are located in different contexts. The article concludes that both citizens' high level of trust and an open police culture improve the performance return of accountability pressure. - Reproduced.
