Your First Five Crime Studies of August 1
All of today's research relates to guns
Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you think and write about crime responsibly.
Published Tuesdays and Thursdays, Your First Five is a free tip sheet made up of a curated selection of recent research related to crime and justice.
These new studies related to criminology and criminal justice were published recently by journals I monitor.
1. Focused deterrence, strategic management, and effective gun violence prevention [Criminology & Public Policy]
2. Firearm shootings and the police response: examining the impact of gunshot detection technology [Police Practice and Research]
3. Examining gang membership and victimisation as predictors of gun violence perpetration: testing for interactive effects [International Journal of Comparative and Applied Criminal Justice]
4. The Impact of Neighborhood Characteristics on Routine and Gang-Involved Gun Violence: Are Structural Covariates Salient? [Deviant Behavior]
5. State efforts to enforce firearm dispossession through relinquishment laws [Criminology & Public Policy]
I might cover some of these studies further in Understanding Crime. If one sounds interesting or important, let me know in the comments.
Your First Five and the directories I'm experimenting with are the output of my research discovery system.
