What effect can a negative exchange have on future interactions with an officer?

A negative exchange with an officer can lead to resentment, which may significantly impact future interactions. When individuals have a negative experience, such as feeling disrespected, unfairly treated, or misunderstood, it can create lingering feelings of animosity or distrust towards that officer and law enforcement as a whole. This resentment can cause individuals to approach future interactions with skepticism or hostility, rather than openness and cooperation.

In contrast to the other options, such as increased trust or cooperation, which typically arise from positive interactions, resentment can lead to an unwillingness to engage positively in the future. Neutral feelings might imply a lack of strong emotion in either direction; however, resentment specifically denotes a negative emotional response that can hinder effective communication and collaboration in subsequent encounters.
