Published Tuesdays and Thursdays, Your First Five is a free tip sheet made up of a curated selection of recent crime and justice research.

These new studies related to criminology and criminal justice were published recently by journals I monitor.
1. Risk and Protective Factors in Children Bullying Perpetration: Application of the Multiple Disadvantage Model [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
2. Personal Norms Predict Defending in Bullying: Mediating Role of Anticipated Pride and Guilt [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
3. Bullying Victimization and Youth’s Likelihood of Carrying a Handgun [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
4. Dark Tetrad at Work: Perceived Severity of Bullying, Harassment, and Workplace Deviance [International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology]
5. The Long Arm of Childhood Bullying Victimization: Associations with Social Isolation, Gender Differences and Depression in Later Life [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
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.


Publication about crime is an interesting idea, not gonna lie.
