Maritime search and rescue in canada and the use of emergency radio beacons
A Neglected Problem
The relationship between the police and African Americans has had a contentious history for decades. To explore this topic further, we interviewed 77 African Americans in the City of Durham, NC, about the declining relationship between their community and the police. We find that African Americans’ perceptions of the police are nuanced and complicated by personal experiences, vicarious experiences of relatives and friends, and news from social me…
There Can Be More Than One
The underrepresentation of Black Americans as graduate students and faculty in Criminology and Criminal Justice programs is well-recognized. This essay discusses some of the dynamics of the academy that potentially contribute to the lack of Black representation at the highest levels of the academy. Through the sharing of various experiences, this essay sheds light on how the dearth of Black men in the academy creates challenges for the few Black …
Let’s Get Ready to Crumble
U.S. cities transform public housing. Black municipal leadership (BML) may influence the scale and character of public housing removal and redevelopment. Informed by the “Black urban regime” literature, this study assesses whether presence and duration of BML, coupled with other factors, explains variation in public housing transformation for a sample of large cities. Its findings suggest that, controlling for other factors, BML is associated wit…
Policing in American History
This article examines the historical evolution of policing in America with a focus on race. Specifically, it is argued that racial bias has deep roots in American policing, and reforms in policing and American society have not eliminated the detrimental experiences of Blacks who encounter the police. Historical information and contemporary empirical research indicate that, even when legal and other factors are equal, Blacks continue to experience…
Self-Ambivalence and Psychological Adjustment in Cultural Context
Bleuler and Freud claimed that conflicting feelings toward an attitude object, or ambivalence, may be associated with psychological maladjustment. While their viewpoint seems generally accepted in Western cultures, it is less clear whether it applies in other cultures. Two studies investigated whether self-ambivalence (SA; the co-presence of contrary evaluations of the self as an attitude object) is associated with several common manifestations o…
Race, Geography, and Juvenile Justice
A large body of research indicates that both geography and race influence juvenile justice outcomes, with the exact magnitude and direction of the relationships still under dispute. In either case, differential outcomes likely stem from the varying influence of legal and extralegal factors. This study uses the spirit of the liberation hypothesis to explore how legal and extralegal factors contribute to geographic and racial disparities in juvenil…
Racial Disparities in Juvenile Court Outcomes
After decades of research, the exact impact of race on juvenile court outcomes is still a complex matter. The focus of this study is to address the liberation hypothesis as a potential explanation for racial disparities in juvenile court outcomes. This perspective has not previously been applied to juvenile court outcomes. Results from the analyses demonstrate the differential effect of legal and extralegal factors on serious and less serious cas…
Identifying variation in police officer behavior between juveniles and adults
Race and Officer Decision Making
Since the 1960s, one of the major reform efforts in law enforcement has been to increase the number of Black Americans within police agencies and on patrol in the streets. The general premise behind these efforts has been that increased diversity will improve police–community relations and will decrease biased police behavior, particularly against Black citizens. Policies seeking to reform policing through increasing the numbers of African Americ…
True to Our Native Land
There have been several recent attempts to operationalize and measure empirically attitudinal support for Black nationalism. However, scholars have not yet reached a consensus as to what precisely constitutes Black nationalism and its manifestations. Our work addresses three critical questions. First, is Black nationalism a uni-dimensional or a multi-dimensional construct? Second, is Black nationalism another form of xenophobia? Third, is support…
Separate Nations
Previous research has often treated the ideology of Black Nationalism as a singular, uniform set of beliefs. We explore the attitudinal complexity of African-American support for Black Nationalism and discover two distinct dimensions of Black Nationalism, which we label community nationalism and separatist nationalism. While the former dimension enjoys support among several black subgroups, including more affluent blacks, the latter dimension is …
Religious Homogamy, Marital Conflict, and Stability in Same-Faith and Interfaith Jewish Marriages
This study examined the relationship between a couple's similarity in religious beliefs and practices and their level of marital conflict and stability. One-hundred-fifty-five adult children of same-faith and interfaith Jewish marriages reported on each of their parents' religious beliefs and behaviors. Religious homogamy was defined as similar attitudes and beliefs about specific religious practices. The parents' level of marital conflict was ob…
The Impact of Social Support on Gay Male Couples
The impact of social support on the relationships of gay male couples is examined. Social support for couples is defined as the availability of people outside the couple perceived as willing to offer resources in a manner that provides assistance and validates the couple's relationship. The sample consisted of 156 cohabiting gay male couples. It was found that social support for the couple is positively correlated with relationship quality. There…
A Call for an Education Initiative at Nasa
Invited to address an awards banquet in Hagerstown, Maryland, honoring outstanding educators in the community for their efforts on behalf of young people, the author prepared for his speech by thinking about the meaning of frontiers, pioneers, technological innovation, discovery, science and—especially—the grand tableau of American exploration. He shares here his vision for the U.S. space program, a future that could take us all to the Moon and M…

Moral reasoning, parental sex attitudes, and sex guilt in female college students
Naming Mixed Drinks
A finding by Sobell, et al. (5) that Gamma alcoholics compared with social drinkers were deficient in a response repertoire for names of types of mixed alcoholic drinks was replicated and extended. Significant differences were recorded between alcoholics and social drinkers regardless of sex, alcoholic sub-type, or stated drink preference
