The Threatening Path to Inequality: A Multilevel Path Analysis of Minority Threat Theory, Threat Mediation, and Displacement on Ethnic Sentencing
This study aspires to address three important gaps in the Minority Threat literature by using Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling (MSEM) to develop separate perceptual measures of economic and political threat, exploring the indirect path from population characteristics to sentencing severity via perceived threat, and assessing the transference of immigrant threat onto LatinX offenders. The findings support many, but not all, of the theorized…

As hypothesized, the results indicate that personal and vicarious experiences with punishment and punishment avoidance were significant predictors of punishment certainty and self-report…
From 'Just Say No' to 'I Didn't Inhale' to We Have 'Bigger Fish to Fry: The President, The Media, and Attitudes Toward Marijuana Legalization

It's not all black and white: A propensity score matched, multilevel examination of racial drug sentencing disparities
This study aims to alleviate some of the mixed findings throughout the literature on racial disparities in sentencing outcomes by utilizing propensity score matching and multilevel modeling to assess racial drug sentencing disparities in state courts from 2000–2012. The findings illustrate the effect of race on sentencing varies significantly across states, and aggregate factors impact this relationship. Specifically, although differential offend…
