Bias detected? An examination of criminal history using the Oyas-DIS for girls and black youth
Black youth and girls are at an increased risk of formal involvement in the juvenile justice system. These differential experiences have the potential to harm the validity of the criminal history measures on juvenile risk assessments. The present study examines the incremental validity of the criminal history items on the Ohio Youth Assessment System-Disposition Tool in a sample of 3,591 youth across gender and race. Results indicated that the cr…
Wine, Beer, and Lotto
Many studies find a higher density of liquor stores in urban communities with predominantly Black and/or low-income residents. Although these business establishments tend to fill commercial voids in these neighborhoods, residents complain that liquor stores often provoke serious problems. Scholars support these claims with findings showing evidence of strong correlations between liquor stores and crime, domestic abuse, and substance abuse. The pr…
Governance networks and local economic development policy during the Great Recession in the US
Research shows that US cities increased their use of business incentives during the Great Recession. Drawing from governance-based theories’ emphasis on mutual resource dependency and the resourcefulness of larger networks, the analysis presented in this study examines whether expanding governance networks influenced this change in cities’ use of incentives. The dataset includes 162 council-manager cities that responded to both the 2004 and 2009 …
Racialization and Subsidized Low-Income Housing in American Cities
Historically, the racialization of minority groups’ housing needs shaped policy decisions and provoked the unequal distribution of subsidized low-income housing across American neighborhoods and cities. This study extends beyond the Black–White dichotomy in the literature to examine variations in cities’ availability of all federally subsidized low-income housing units (public housing, multifamily, and Housing Choice Voucher) according to which r…
Does it matter ‘who governs?’ Governance networks, local economic development policies, and the Great Recession
This study purports to examine whether governance networks influence cities’ use of local economic development policies, specifically business incentives, and if the role of networks changed during the Great Recession. Using American cities that responded to the International City/County Management Association’s Economic Development Survey in 2004 and 2009, hierarchical cluster analysis was employed to identify groups of cities with similar netwo…
