Do medical marijuana centers behave like locally undesirable land uses? Implications for the geography of health and environmental justice
As of 2013, medical marijuana is legal in 20 states and the District of Columbia, but few studies have investigated the consequences of the retail centers that sell the drug. We draw upon the social construction literature to frame our research and help us determine whether medical marijuana centers in Denver, Colorado (USA) are considered locally undesirable land uses (LULUs). The geography of health and environmental justice frameworks lead us …
Gender and general strain theory: A replication and exploration of Broidy and Agnew's gender/strain hypothesis among a sample of southwestern Mexican American adolescents
Specifying General Strain Theory: An Ethnically Relevant Approach
The current study incorporated principles from the acculturation literature to specify an ethnically relevant general strain theory (GST). This study argues that the acculturation process exposes Hispanics to unique types of strain (e.g., prejudice and discrimination) that may increase the likelihood of delinquency. Further varying levels of Hispanic concentration can moderate the effect of acculturative strain on delinquency, whereby the effect …
A Comparison of Saliva Testing to Urinalysis in an Arrestee Population
Past studies have concluded that individuals under criminal justice supervision often underreport their recent use of illicit drugs. To address this underreporting, objective biological measures, such as urine, saliva, and hair testing, have been used to gain better estimates of illegal drug use. While urinalysis is generally recognized as the reference standard, a method recently introduced in nonlaboratory settings for ascertaining drug use-sal…
