Research Interests

My research agenda focuses on theoretical and substantive questions in sociology and criminology concerning: the organizational contexts of juvenile and criminal courts, racial/ethnic, gender, and class disparities in case processing decisions for offenders and the implementation and consequences of juvenile/criminal justice policies. First, I have multiple papers from my mixed-method dissertation research that examines how competency to stand trial (CST) is practiced in a large Metropolitan juvenile court jurisdiction that operates under specific CST statutory provisions; the papers are in various stages of submission to top tier criminology journals. To date, I have three co-authored manuscripts that are related to my research interests and extend beyond my dissertation. Two papers examine sentencing decisions within an organizational framework, the first in Arizona and the second in New York and New Jersey. The third paper is a book chapter that is forthcoming and examines contemporary legal challenges facing youth and young adults from an International perspective.

Since my arrival at OSU-N, I have also successfully initiated and secured two new grant- funded research projects, funded by OSU ?N (PI) and OSU (Co-PI). The first project is a qualitative comparative study of the practice of CST for youth in a state that does not have specific statutory provisions, but instead, relies on adult standards of CST in a juvenile court context. Through this project, I have employed two undergraduate criminology majors as research assistants and one sociology PhD student as a graduate research associate. The team is participating in advanced literature reviews across many disciplines (e.g. criminology, sociology, psychology, and law), coding and data entry, qualitative data analyses using Nvivo 8 software, presentation of the results to local and national criminal justice communities, and publication of the results for participating agency reports, scholarly journals, and an external grant proposal to be submitted to the National Science Foundation in August 2009.

I am also working with Deanna Wilkinson (PI) and other OSU colleagues on a project funded by the Criminal Justice Research Center at OSU that blends survey research, grassroots community engagement tactics, and the creation of a translational repository for evidence-based information on youth violence prevention and intervention. The success of this project is measured through process and impact indicators that include tracking the number and depth of engagement of various community partners in fulfilling the project objectives. The project is process oriented and information is gathered and shared as soon as it is readily available throughout the project. We are also gathering official police data on crime incidents in the target area in order to gauge what impact the comprehensive intervention network work is having on crime patterns. There will be specific research publications that will represent at least, in part, outcomes of these efforts. This project will be the first of several collaborative projects between OSU and the community partners around public safety and youth development. Specifically, some of the results are being utilized for an external grant proposal to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (to be submitted February 2009) that involves additional OSU collaborators. Overall, in my short tenure at OSU-N, I have demonstrated my dedication to scholarship by continuing to produce scholarly publications and forging new grant-funded research collaborations with local scholars and community members in order to be actively engaged in my research agenda.
