Abstract

This study aims to develop and investigate a research model of extortion operation that has an impact on public trust in the Republic of Indonesia's state police institution. The questionnaire was distributed to 800 members of the National Police and the community in the North Sumatra region, Jakarta, South Sulawesi, West Nusa Tenggara from August to October 2017. The data were processed using Structural Equation Model. Research results prove that the research model is so fit that it can be used to predict the influence between variables where: (1) The Influencing factors of extortion operation prove that regulation has relatively small impact at 0.10, each Resource and Environmental is not significant, while Synergy equals to 53 percent; (2) The influencing factors of public trust prove that extortion operation is significantly positive, equaling to 0.73, and performance of police members is also positive at 0.11; while the influence of extortion eradication on the performance of Indonesian police members has significantly positive coefficient at 0.03. This evidence proves that synergy has strong effect on extortion eradication and impact to public trust.
