The Effects of Race and Physical Evidence on the Likelihood of Arrest for Homicide
Previous research examining the association between criminal suspect’s race and the likelihood of arrest has produced inconsistent findings. Social scientists remain unsure as to whether Black or White criminal suspects have a higher probability of arrest. Still others find no substantive association between a criminal suspect’s race and the likelihood of arrest. This study contributes to the extant literature by examining the relationship betwee…
A test of the bifurcation hypothesis in prosecutorial diversion
Research Summary This study offers a localized test of the bifurcation hypothesis, which suggests that jurisdictions adopting decarceral policies for lower‐level offenses often do so at the expense of increased punitiveness toward more serious offenses. Relying on fresh data from Florida, we examine how adopting a new diversion program targeting low‐level traffic offenses affects overall prosecutorial diversion decisions. The new program is assoc…
Sinn und Sinne im Tanz: Perspektiven aus Kunst und Wissenschaft. Jahrbuch TanzForschung 2020
Ähnlich und doch verschieden: Sinn und Sinne im Tanz. Sinn steht für Sinnhaftes, für Einsicht und Vernunft - und mit Sinne wird alles Sinnliche, wird Erfahrung und Wahrnehmung verbunden. Tanz macht Sinn, Tanz ist Sinnlichkeit. Aus der Reibung dieser beiden Pole entstehen für den künstlerischen Tanz wie auch für deren Erforschung neuartige Ansätze. Das im Körper gespeicherte Wissen spielt dabei eine bedeutende Rolle. Aus der Perspektive unterschie…
Urban Resilience in a Global Context: Actors, Narratives, and Temporalities
Urban Resilience is seen by many as a tool to mitigate harm in times of extreme social, political, financial, and environmental stress. Despite its widespread usage, however, resilience is used in different ways by policy makers, activists, academics, and practitioners. Some see it as a key to unlocking a more stable and secure urban future in times of extreme global insecurity; for others, it is a neoliberal technology that marginalizes the voic…
Stereotypes and terror management: Evidence that mortality salience enhances stereotypic thinking and preferences
If stereotypes function to protect people against death-related concerns, then mortality salience should increase stereotypic thinking and preferences for stereotype-confirming individuals. Study 1 demonstrated that mortality salience increased stereotyping of Germans. In Study 2, it increased participants' tendency to generate more explanations for stereotype-inconsistent than stereotype-consistent gender role behavior. In Study 3, mortality sal…
Suppression, accessibility of death-related thoughts, and cultural worldview defense: Exploring the psychodynamics of terror management
Previous research has shown that after a mortality-salience (MS) treatment, death thought accessibility and worldview defense are initially low and then increase after a delay, suggesting that a person's initial response to conscious thoughts of mortality is to actively suppress death thoughts. If so, then high cognitive load, by disrupting suppression efforts, should lead to immediate increases in death thought accessibility and cultural worldvi…
