I worked with @fabioimpoppi on this paper now in Critical Criminology. We use innovative data collection and theoretical framework (joint fantasizing) to look at identities and crime. link.springer.com/article/10… #qualcrim

I hope this gets the conversation started about the practical and ethical issues with making transcripts and other qualitative data public. The editors of Criminology @VolkanTopalli seem open to discuss. Would live to hear other people's thoughts on it. #Criminology #qualcrim

Pleased that The Criminologist published @HeCopes & my article on the "Transparency trade-off: the risks of Criminology’s new data sharing policy". As board members of #Criminology we felt it was important to discuss possible implications for qualitative researchers &participants

This piece explains how Addiction handles terminology that may be harmful to vulnerable groups. As a global journal, we find significant disagreement among our authors, readers, and reviewers, of what terms to avoid. Therefore, 1/3

There are two papers based on visual methods in this issue of Crime and Delinquency! Mine with @SveinungSandbe1 and @jaredragland and one by @TheRitaPhD Maybe the method will become more common in criminology and criminal justice!

Thanks @averyanapol for helping get our work in The Conversation. We hope by sharing the stories of women like Misty and Alice we can help minimize the stigma they face and ensure they have access to resources they need. Thanks @UAB_CJ and @UAB_CAS for supporting this research

One of my favorite things about people from South Louisiana is that they are not afraid to stuff meat with other meat. Happy Thanksgiving!
