Juvenile fatalities in law enforcement encounters
Police shootings and body cameras one year post-Ferguson
Police departments across many countries have rapidly begun implementing the use of body cameras to document their interactions with the public. Previous research has shown that body camera footage of a police shooting was viewed positively before, but negatively immediately following, the media coverage of the Ferguson, MO shooting of Michael Brown [Culhane, S.E., Boman IV, J., and Schweitzer, K., 2016. Public perceptions of the justifiability o…
Ethnicity and Court Processes: An Archival Review of Adjudicated Jury Trials
Many studies point to the influence of 1 variable as a potent factor that influences case outcomes: race/ethnicity. Much remains to be learned about how race/ethnicity affects court processes. To advance understanding of the impact of race/ethnicity on court processes, we collected archival data from sources such as police arrest reports, indictments, venire lists, and judicial instructions maintained in files from the district clerk's office. Th…
Reliability and Validity of the Novaco Anger Scale and Provocation Inventory (NAS-PI) and State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-2 (STAXI-2) in Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White Student Samples
This project tested the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory—2 (STAXI-2) and the Novaco Anger Scale—Provocation Inventory (NAS-PI) in a sample of U.S. Hispanic ( n = 257) and U.S. non-Hispanic White ( n = 246) undergraduate students. Internal consistency, subscale correlations, convergent validity with the Multidimensional Anger Inventory (MAI), and predictive validity were all analyzed. Across ethnic groups, all major subscales demonstrated ad…
Alibi Generation: Data from U.S. Hispanics and U.S. Non-Hispanic Whites
Previous studies have shown that mock jurors are skeptical of alibi witnesses who are related to or even have a close social relationship with a defendant. The present project tested respondents' ability to recall their whereabouts for a particular date and time. It also provided the first descriptive data on a variety of alibi topics. The majority of individuals claimed to have an alibi witness for a given time and the majority of alibi witnesse…
The Effects of Ethnicity, SES, and Crime Status on Juror Decision Making: A Cross-Cultural Examination of Euopean American and Mexican American Mock Jurors
In two studies, a defendant's ethnicity, socioeconomic status (SES), and crime status were varied for effects on verdict decisions, sentencing recommendations, culpability assignments, and trait assessments. In Study 1, European Americans ( N = 221) provided a low SES Mexican American defendant with more guilt verdicts, a lengthier sentence, and higher culpability ratings, compared to a high SES Mexican American or a European American defendant, …
