UNITED STATES: Biometric tracking may help, but the culture of silence remains an obstacle Police1 7/10/2023 Feature Disparities in Sex-Specific Arrest Rates: Does Offense Type and Neighborhood Context Matter? We investigate differential effects of neighborhood structure on the arrest rates of men versus women. Given potential disparities in the use of discretion by offense severity, we disaggregate crime to aggravated assaults, burglaries, and drug offenses. We employ negative binomial regression models to predict the number of arrests by sex for each crime type, and test for significant differences within and between sex across offense severity. We find few differences within and across sex, however, levels of disorder and the racial composition of a neighborhood are important structural factors in understanding arrests by sex and across offense type. Neighborhood composition is associated with differential rates of arrest by sex and across offense severity, which has implications for gender disparities in the criminal justice system. Crime and Delinquency - Subscription at source 7/10/2023 Research article Advancing the Implementation of Body-Worn Cameras: Using Police Officers’ Buy-In to Inform Research and Policy The extant literature on police body-worn cameras (BWCs) has focused on how this technology would yield beneficial outcomes, such as having a “civilizing” effect on police behavior during interactions with civilians. While such studies have highlighted the potential positive outcomes of using BWCs, it is important to understand why and how police officers “buy-in” to its implementation in their departments. Officer buy-in can be important for several reasons, including officers’ compliance with BWC policy, mental health, and motivation to do their jobs. Therefore, the objective of the present paper was to emphasize the importance of considering officer buy-in when integrating BWCs, propose self-determination theory (SDT) as a theoretical framework to inform research on officer buy-in, and provide future directions for research and policy based on SDT. We use SDT as the basis of our research, as other theories (i.e., self-awareness and deterrence theory) do not sufficiently explicate how officer buy-in may be obtained.
