The origins of California’s gun violence restraining order law: A case study using Kingdon’s multiple streams framework
This case study may inform efforts in other states to pass ERPO policies and other firearm safety laws
The role of firearm and alcohol availability in firearm suicide: A population-based weighted case-control study
Firearm availability has been linked to firearm self-harm, but the joint relationship with alcohol availability, while supported by theory, has not been examined. This study sought to quantify the separate and joint relations of community firearm and alcohol availability with individual-level risk of (fatal and nonfatal) firearm self-harm. We conducted a case-control study of California residents, 2005-2015, using statewide mortality, hospital, f…
Unemployment and Crime in US Cities During the Coronavirus Pandemic
Neighborhood Racial and Economic Segregation and Disparities in Violence During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Objectives. To describe associations between neighborhood racial and economic segregation and violence during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods. For 13 US cities, we obtained zip code–level data on 5 violence outcomes from March through July 2018 through 2020. Using negative binomial regressions and marginal contrasts, we estimated differences between quintiles of racial, economic, and racialized economic segregation using the Index of Concentration…
News media coverage of extreme risk protection order policies surrounding the Parkland shooting: A mixed-methods analysis
This study describes the emerging public discourse, as informed by media messaging and framing, on ERPOs as states continue to debate and implement these risk-based firearm violence prevention policies
Racial bias and DUI enforcement: Comparing conviction rates with frequency of behavior
Research summary This study estimates disparities in driving under the influence (DUI) convictions relative to the frequency with which racial/ethnic groups engage in alcohol‐impaired driving. We use had‐been‐drinking crashes and self‐reported alcohol‐impaired driving to approximate alcohol‐impaired driving frequency for racial/ethnic groups in California from 2001 to 2016. DUI conviction and had‐been‐drinking crash data are from a sample of 72,3…
Understanding the circumstances and stakeholder perceptions of gun violence restraining order use in California: A qualitative study
Research Summary Risk‐based firearm removal policies are relatively new, and research on their implementation and effectiveness is limited. Using an interpretive phenomenological approach, we interviewed stakeholders in California's gun violence restraining order (GVRO) process to learn about circumstances in which GVROs are appropriate. Two primary themes emerged: (1) GVROs are most useful when there is acute risk of harm with a firearm, in the …
