Community Based Intervention01:30

Case Studies01:22

Case Studies

There are many research methods available to psychologists in their efforts to understand, describe, and explain behavior and the cognitive and biological processes that underlie it.
Longitudinal Research02:20

Longitudinal Research

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...
Drug Control Governance: Regulatory Bodies and Their Impact01:03

Drug Control Governance: Regulatory Bodies and Their Impact

Drug control governance involves the oversight and regulation of pharmaceuticals to ensure their safety and efficacy while preventing illegal drug use and trafficking. Regulatory bodies, including the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Union's European Medicines Agency (EMA), play a central role in this process. These agencies evaluate the safety and efficacy of drugs before they can be marketed. They fund clinical trials and assess the benefits and risks associated with a...
Ethics in Research01:56

Ethics in Research

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Area of Science:

  • Criminology
  • Public Policy
  • Data Science

Background:

  • Latin American prison systems face severe overcrowding, violence, and high recidivism.
  • Effective prisoner reintegration is hindered by systemic barriers and disadvantages amplified by incarceration.
  • Evidence-based policies, supported by robust data, are essential for successful reintegration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the lack of data-driven policies in prison systems.
  • To develop and implement an integrated data visualization prototype for prison management and rehabilitation in Chile.
  • To inform decision-making for enhancing prisoner reintegration.

Main Methods:

  • A mixed-methods approach combining surveys, administrative data, and over 110 qualitative interviews.
  • Incorporation of geocoded material and analysis of the prison-related normative context.
  • Collaborative partnership with the Chilean prison service.

Main Results:

  • Creation of an integrated visualization prototype displaying key indicators for prison life and rehabilitation.
  • Generation of useful information for prison administrators and policymakers.
  • Demonstration of the prototype's utility through various examples.

Conclusions:

  • The integrated visualization prototype provides valuable insights for improving prisoner reintegration strategies in Chile.
  • Data-driven policy development is a critical, yet often overlooked, component of effective criminal justice reform.
  • The study discusses implications for the U.S. context and the Smart Decarceration Initiative.
