New article out in JQ! In it we use video-based SSO to analyze both escalation and de-escalation within police-citizen encounters. We also apply a modified resistance force comparative scheme to assess for proportionality and incrementalism. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

New article out with awesome grad student Jake Foster in @police_practice. We assess the relationship between officers' career aspirations, role orientations, unique work experiences, education, and whether they completed additional in-service training.

New research out with Bill Terrill at HS. The aim of the paper is to assess officers' perceptions of danger in various armed citizen encounters. We also attempt to identify contextual factors that might heighten their sense of danger if present.

New solo article out in The Police Journal. The study takes a descriptive look at the unique work experiences of officers (shifts, crime areas, duty assignments), and how those experiences vary between and within officer tenure groupings. doi.org/10.1177/0032258X2110…

New research out with Bill Terrill in Criminal Justice Studies that takes a look at how more nuanced measures of officer experience (beyond length of tenure) are linked with different cultural orientations. Hopefully much more to come from this data! doi.org/10.1080/1478601X.202…
