Описание: The Foundations of Statistics in Criminology and Criminal Justice underscores the purpose and role of statistics in criminal justice practice, emphasizes major analytical techniques, and covers two key types of statistics—descriptive and inferential. The text helps students build a fundamental background in analytical methods within the context of criminal justice.
Part I demonstrates the importance of statistics and its practical application within criminology and criminal justice. Part II introduces students to descriptive statistics. They learn about measures of central tendency and measures of variability within empirical research in the criminal justice system. In Part III, students examine the issues of probability and the normal curve, which explain how criminal justice data sources and research can be used for decision-making tools with an adequate degree of scientific validation. Part IV explores inferential statistics as a decision-making aid that plays a pivotal roles in criminal justice policy development and planning. The final section demonstrates practical applications within the discipline and summarizes analytical methods.
Accessible and engaging, The Foundations of Statistics in Criminology and Criminal Justice is an exemplary resource for courses in statistics in criminology and criminal justice.
Описание: The Foundations of Statistics in Criminology and Criminal Justice: Companion Learning Guide is a supporting volume for The Foundations of Statistics in Criminology and Criminal Justice written by Kyung-shick Choi and Hyeyoung Lim.
Whereas the main text helps students build a knowledge base of analytical methods within the context of criminal justice, this companion learning guide emphasizes practical application. Students are provided with numerous examples and opportunities to practice the measurement of central tendency, variability, probability, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, regression analysis, the chi-square test, and more. The book also includes IBM SPSS statistical software tutorials specially designed to help students learn data management and data analysis skills using real criminal justice data.
An ideal supplementary resource, The Foundations of Statistics in Criminology and Criminal Justice: Companion Learning Guide is well suited for graduate and undergraduate courses in statistics and data analysis in criminology and criminal justice.
Описание: The Emerald Handbook of Crime, Justice and Sustainable Development brings together a diverse and international collection of essays to critically examine issues relating to crime and justice in the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development provides an important global framework for advancing human rights, social justice and environmental sustainability. A number of the Agenda's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) address issues relating to crime, justice and security, and implicit in the 2030 Agenda is the assumption that members of the international community 'including traditional development actors and the myriad international, non-governmental, private, state and local organizations and actors that collectively contribute to the global governance of crime' must work together to enhance the capacities of both developing and developed countries to achieve this vision.
Against this backdrop, this volume analyses and interrogates the SDGs from different theoretical and ideological standpoints originating from within and beyond criminology, illustrating the complex and politically contentious nature of these issues and providing insight into the different possibilities that exist for realising the SDGs and mitigating the risk that initiatives meant to realise the SDGs, may in fact contribute to harmful and counterproductive policies and practices.
This book will be essential reading for scholars and students within criminology, criminal justice, socio-legal studies, international relations and development studies.

Описание: This ground-breaking collection dares to take the next step in the advancement of an autonomous, inter-disciplinary restorative justice field of study. It brings together criminology, social psychology, legal theory, neuroscience, affect-script psychology, sociology, forensic mental health, political sciences, psychology and positive psychology to articulate for the first time a psychological concept of restorative justice. To this end, the book studies the power structures of the restorative justice movement, the very psychology, motivations and emotions of the practitioners who implement it as well as the drivers of its theoreticians and researchers. Furthermore, it examines the strengths and weakness of our own societies and the communities that are called to participate as parties in restorative justice. Their own biases, hunger for power and control, fears and hopes are investigated. The psychology and dynamics between those it aims to reach as well as those who are funding it, including policy makers and politicians, are looked into. All these questions lead to creating an understanding of the psychology of restorative justice. The book is essential reading for academics, researchers, policymakers, practitioners and campaigners.

Описание: Assumes one-semester of calculus. "Stories" make distributions (Normal, Binomial, Poisson that are widely-used in statistics) easier to remember, understand. Many books write down formulas without explaining clearly why these particular distributions are important or how they are all connected.
A brand new, fully updated edition of a popular classic on matrix differential calculus with applications in statistics and econometrics
This exhaustive, self-contained book on matrix theory and matrix differential calculus provides a treatment of matrix calculus based on differentials and shows how easy it is to use this theory once you have mastered the technique. Jan Magnus, who, along with the late Heinz Neudecker, pioneered the theory, develops it further in this new edition and provides many examples along the way to support it.
Matrix calculus has become an essential tool for quantitative methods in a large number of applications, ranging from social and behavioral sciences to econometrics. It is still relevant and used today in a wide range of subjects such as the biosciences and psychology. Matrix Differential Calculus with Applications in Statistics and Econometrics, Third Edition contains all of the essentials of multivariable calculus with an emphasis on the use of differentials. It starts by presenting a concise, yet thorough overview of matrix algebra, then goes on to develop the theory of differentials. The rest of the text combines the theory and application of matrix differential calculus, providing the practitioner and researcher with both a quick review and a detailed reference.
