Analyse Spatiale Des Crimes Commis Sur La Rue A L'Interieur Des Marches De Drogues, David Weisburd, Lorraine Green, Debra Ross Dec 1993

Analyse Spatiale Des Crimes Commis Sur La Rue A L'Interieur Des Marches De Drogues, David Weisburd, Lorraine Green, Debra Ross

Debra E. Ross

In this paper we utilize data from the Drug Market Analysis Program (DMAP) in Jersey City, New Jersey, to provide some preliminary insight into the spatial relationship between street level drug markets and crime. We begin our paper with a description of how the DMAP information system was used to define drug markets and the characteristics of the markets that were identified. We then turn to an analysis of the incidence of reported crime within drug market boundaries. We find that drug market areas include a disproportionate share of arrests and crime related emergency calls for service in Jersey City. …

The Use Of Dale Carnegie Training By Law Enforcement Agencies: A Comparative Analysis Of Dale Carnegie Trained & Non-Dale Carnegie Trained Officers Within Community Policing-Oriented Departments, Joanne Ziembo-Vogl

Joanne Ziembo-Vogl

The purpose of this research was to present a comparison of attitudes between Dale Carnegie Trained and non-Carnegie trained officers within Community Policing oriented law enforcement agencies. McAllen Police Department (McAllen, Texas) and Michigan State University's Department of Public Safety were examined. Community Policing agencies were chosen, predicated upon the inherent need for human relations training evidenced within Community Policing's philosophy of police/community partnership and interactive problem solving. Dependent variables examined were officers' attitudes toward job satisfaction, job-related stress, willingness to interact with the citizenry, and departments' stated missions and goals. Data indicated no statistically significant attitudinal differences with respect …

An Exploration Of The Relationship Between Crime And Chemical Use: A Study Of Jail Intake Data, Mariesha L. Pearson Jan 1987

An Exploration Of The Relationship Between Crime And Chemical Use: A Study Of Jail Intake Data, Mariesha L. Pearson

UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Research was completed on a 300-person sample of 1985 arrestees in Jacksonville, Florida. The original focus of the study was to explore the possible relationship between crime and chemical use. Data was obtained from forms that were routinely used in the jail booking and interview process. Two booking/intake forms were used: The Arrest and Booking Report and the Medical Screening Information (P-075) form. Only 24 arrestees in the 300-person sample admitted to using chemicals. Hence, the data did not support the hypothesis of this thesis that a correlational relationship exists between crime and chemical use. This researcher observed and interviewed …
