Your First Five Crime Studies of July 9
All of today's research relates to policies
Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you read, think, and write about crime. Critically, accurately, responsibly, and ethically.
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. Stigmatizing ‘evildoers’: how beliefs about evil and public stigma explain criminal justice policy preferences [Psychology, Crime & Law]
2. Examining community policing policy implementation and racial disparities in officer-involved lethal encounters [Policing: An International Journal]
3. The effect of formal de‐policing on police traffic stop behavior and crime: Early evidence from LAPD's policy to restrict discretionary traffic stops [Criminology & Public Policy]
4. A Mixed-Methods Study of Early Intervention System Policy, Supervisory Review Practices, and Effectiveness [Justice Quarterly]
5. Catch and release: Testing the effect of a citation release policy on crime in Washington, DC [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.
