Robbers Cave04:49

Robbers Cave

14.3K
During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

Confirmation Biases

5.5K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

32.6K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Area of Science:

  • Criminology
  • Public Health
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Cities are implementing pre-booking diversion programs to redirect individuals from arrest to services.
  • These programs aim to reduce criminal justice involvement, crime, and public disorder.
  • Limited research exists on community members' perspectives of these diversion initiatives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine community members' perspectives on pre-booking diversion programs.
  • To understand how demographic and district-level factors influence these views.
  • To identify barriers and facilitators for program planning, evaluation, and implementation.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was administered to 293 residents in four Philadelphia police districts with pre-booking diversion programs.
  • The survey assessed residents' views on diversion, decriminalization of substance use, sex work, and minor theft.
  • Bivariate chi-squared tests and multivariate logistic regression analyzed subgroup differences.

Main Results:

  • Community perspectives on pre-booking diversion were diverse and influenced by respondent demographics and district crime patterns.
  • Most surveyed residents perceived diversion programs as beneficial for policing experiences and outcomes.
  • Residents in areas with higher crime and public disorder reported significantly less positive views.

Conclusions:

  • Pre-booking diversion is viewed as a valuable tool by many community members.
  • Skepticism among residents in high-disorder areas suggests diversion alone may not address complex public safety issues.
  • Further research is needed to understand how to make diversion programs more effective in diverse community contexts.
