  • Arrest? warn? educate? Correlates of conservation officer discretionary decision-making

    Michael J Suttmoeller, Michael Suttmoeller et al.•ARTICLE•Police Practice and Research•2026

    Discretionary decision-making among traditional law enforcement officers has been the subject of a large amount of extant police research. However, conservation officer discretionary decision-making has received much less scholarly attention. Conservation officers are those that specialize in the enforcement of natural resources laws but have experienced a broadening of their role to encompass more traditional law enforcement duties. Using a samp…

  • Conservation officer role and responsibilities

    Open Access•Michael Suttmoeller, Michael T Rossler•ARTICLE•The Police Journal Theory…•2025

    Conservation officers are law enforcement officers tasked with the enforcement of laws related to natural resources. In addition to their enforcement duties, conservation officers also participate in a variety of non-law enforcement activities such as hunter and boater education programs, educational programming for schools and civic organizations, landowner visits to discuss nuisance wildlife issues and wildlife management principles and public …

  • Conservation officer perceptions of search authority

    Michael T Rossler, Michael J Suttmoeller et al.•ARTICLE•Police Practice and Research•2022

    To date, a great deal of confusion and misinformation surrounds the authority (and therefore potentially wider discretion) that conservation officers possess to search private property, vehicles, and residences. Utilizing a survey of approximately 1,600 officers employed in 15 state-level conservation agencies in the United States, the current inquiry examines conservation officer perceptions of their search authority. Findings indicate there is …

  • Is More Violent Better? The Impact of Group Participation in Violence on Group Longevity for Far-Right Extremist Groups

    Michael Suttmoeller, Steven M Chermak et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in Conflict and Terrorism•2017•Cited by: 3•References: 2

    Recent research has begun to explore the causes of organizational death for domestic far-right extremist groups. An important aspect that has not been examined is whether or not a group's participation in violence influences its longevity. This study addresses this gap in the literature by examining over 400 domestic far-right extremist groups that persisted for varying lengths of time to determine whether or not group participation in violence i…

  • Only the Bad Die Young

    Michael Suttmoeller, Steven M Chermak et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in Conflict and Terrorism•2015

    The domestic far-right movement has existed in the United States for many years. During that time, groups have appeared, disappeared, and reappeared. Unfortunately, very little is known about what causes these groups to disband. Prior research has focused on long-lived groups, but the majority of extremist or terrorist groups fail to survive for an extended period of time. This study examined a variety of external and internal correlates of organ…

  • The Influence of External and Internal Correlates on the Organizational Death of Domestic Far-Right Extremist Groups

    Michael Suttmoeller, Steven M Chermak et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in Conflict and Terrorism•2015•Cited by: 4•References: 7

    The domestic far-right movement has existed in the United States for many years. During that time, groups have appeared, disappeared, and reappeared. Unfortunately, very little is known about what causes these groups to disband. An interdisciplinary approach identified external and internal correlates of organizational death to empirically test which of these correlates influences whether a group dies. Results from this study provided empirical s…

  • A test of Sprinzak’s split delegitimization’s theory of the life course of far-right organizational behavior

    Ashmini G Kerodal, Joshua D Freilich et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2015•Cited by: 4•References: 36

    This article applies Sprinzak’s theory of split delegitimization to the American far-right. We examine a sample of 30 violent and 30 nonviolent far-right groups for each year of their existence, drawn from the Extremist Crime Database, and explore the violent and legal behavioral patterns over their lifecycle. Sprinzak hypothesized that far-right groups undergo a radicalization process through three stages, conflict of legitimacy, crisis of confi…

  • The Organizational Dynamics of Far-Right Hate Groups in the United States

    Steven M Chermak, Steven Chermak et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in Conflict and Terrorism•2013•Cited by: 29•References: 5

    Few studies have explored the factors that distinguish violent from nonviolent far-right hate groups. We examine four categories of factors on hate groups: (1) Organizational capacity, (2) Organizational constituency, (3) Strategic connectivity, and (4) Structural arrangements. Age and size, groups in conflict, groups led by charismatic leaders, groups that advocated for leaderless resistance tactics, and region increased a group's propensity to …
