Do Investment and Code Enforcement Mitigate the Criminogenic Effects of Commercial Places on City Streets
Communities and their residents need access to commercial places that provide core goods and services (e.g., retail stores, banks, grocery stores, and restaurants). These place types, however, are often associated with higher levels of crime, though there is within-place type variability. This study explores whether investment in the form of building permits and public regulation in the form of code enforcement moderates the criminogenic effects …
An Empirical Approach to a Standard Practice
Drug testing is a common practice for community supervision in the U.S., despite limited research on its effectiveness at deterring future drug use. The present study explores the purpose of drug testing by examining the relationship between drug test frequency and positive test results. The impact of the type of drug tested (any vs. serious) and the risk and need level of the individuals tested are also examined. Results indicate that after cont…
The Prevalence and Nature of Victimization among First Semester Students at Urban, Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs)
Victimization is associated with compromised psychosocial functioning and educational attainment, but research has yet to investigate the victimization experiences of students who attend Hispanic-Serving Institutions, specifically, to inform programming and services. This study examines the prevalence and nature of victimization (i.e. non-sexual interpersonal victimization, stalking, contact and non-contact sexual victimization, property victimiz…
Investment and crime on residential street segments
Spatiotemporal Crime Patterns Across Six U.S. Cities
Place-Based Improvements for Public Safety
Research demonstrates that crime concentrates at relatively few microplaces, and changes at a small proportion of locations can have a considerable influence on a city's overall crime level. Yet there is little research examining what accounts for change in crime at microplaces. This study examines the relationship between two mechanisms for place-based improvements - private investment in the form of building permits and public regulation in the…
Association between property investments and crime on commercial and residential streets
Physical property investments enhance public safety in communities while alleviating the need for criminal justice system responses. Policy makers and local government officials must allocate scare resources for community and economic development activities. Understanding where physical property investments have the greatest crime reducing benefits can inform decision making to maximize economic, safety, and health outcomes. This study uses Spati…
Scaling Down from the Neighborhood in Urban Planning Research and Practice
The neighborhood has been the dominant spatial unit in urban planning since the early 20th century. Criticisms of the neighborhood unit include disagreements about defining boundaries, methodological challenges in capturing neighborhood effects, and negative impacts on communities. With advancements in data management, and public data available at smaller units (street block or property), quantitative analyses are possible at the micro-scale. Thi…
Findings from the U.S. National Human Trafficking Hotline
Human trafficking is a public health crisis in the United States, yet it is difficult to understand national patterns and trends as official law enforcement data often suffer from reporting and identification issues. The purpose of this study is to describe temporal, case, and geographic patterns in human trafficking help-seeking in the United States. We analyzed data collected from individuals who contacted the U.S. National Human Trafficking Ho…
Spatial spillover effects of crime on private investment at nearby micro-places
Criminal activity may influence the decisions of existing property owners or prospective investors to invest in a property, given the potential elevated expenses and increased uncertainty that often accompany crime. This study investigates the relationship between crime and private investment at nearby micro-places using location-specific crime incident and building permit data from 2008 to 2018 in the cities of Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Ph…
Crime Generators in Context
Victimization, Offending, and Expectations for Future Success among High-Risk Youth
The present study examined consequences of a well-established criminological phenomenon, the victim-offender overlap, and how its prevalence and effects are influenced by the inclusion of indirect victimization, an often overlooked form of victimization. Specifically, we examined how experiencing and/or witnessing victimization, engaging in delinquent behavior, and the combination of these experiences (i.e., the victim-offender overlap) influence…

Protecting High-Risk Youth in High-Risk Contexts
Race, Ethnicity, and Adolescent Violent Victimization
The nature and influence of the victim-offender relationship in kidnapping incidents
Gender, Low Self-Control, and Violent Victimization
Prior research demonstrates that men generally experience higher levels of violent victimization relative to women. Using a high-risk sample of jail inmates, the present study draws on the core ideas from the self-control and societal norms toward the treatment of women literatures to examine the main and interactive effects of gender and self-control on violent victimization. Results indicate that gender and self-control both exhibit main effect…
Researcher–practitioner partnerships and crime analysis
This paper describes a recent researcher–practitioner partnership designed to address the challenges faced by law enforcement agencies when implementing crime control and prevention strategies. Using an action research methodology, the project embedded a group of trained students within the law enforcement community to assist with local crime problems and supplement existing crime analysis and research capabilities in six agency units. Results of…
Social ecology, individual risk, and recidivism
Adolescent school-based sexual victimization
Locating Focused Deterrence Approaches within a Situational Crime Prevention Framework
Guardianship in Context
Survey data from 4,227 Seattle residents nested within 100 “neighborhoods” (census tracts) were analyzed to discern interrelationships between various dimensions of individual‐level and neighborhood‐level guardianship. We focused on four dimensions of guardianship–physical (target hardening), personal (home occupancy), social (informal control), and natural (surveillance through environmental design)–at both individual and neighborhood levels. A …
