This study, using semi-structured interviews with a sample of probation officers (N = 151), develops a model that suggests how officers may weigh psychiatric diagnoses when assessing defendants’ expressions of remorse and how this may shape their presentencing recommendations for sentencing diversion. Results suggest that probation officers consider psychiatric diagnoses when evaluating remorse in sentencing contexts in three main ways: (a) the extent to which psychiatric symptoms may lead defendants to have difficulties showing conventional expressions of remorse and complicate how officers understand their non-normative remorse displays; (b) how psychiatric symptoms can mitigate defendants’ emotional behaviors used to develop and “feel” remorse, particularly their blunted empathy and hindered recognition of their criminal acts; and (c) some officers make stigmatized assumptions about personal qualities of defendants diagnosed with psychiatric diagnoses, which can lead them to be critical of their remorse. Then, drawing from views in the first two areas, officers discussed providing information on defendants’ psychiatric illnesses—and the potential impacts on their abilities to show or develop remorse—to support recommendations for sentencing diversion in presentencing reports. Takeaways, as well as how remorse assessments may shape probation recommendations for sentencing diversion for defendants with psychiatric diagnoses, are discussed.
这项研究使用了对缓刑监督官样本(N=151)的半结构化访谈,开发了一个模型,该模型表明,在评估被告的悔恨表达时,缓刑监督官如何权衡精神病诊断,以及这可能如何影响他们提出的量刑分流建议。结果表明,缓刑监督官在评估量刑背景下的悔恨时,主要通过三种方式考虑精神诊断:(a)精神症状可能导致被告难以表现出传统的悔恨表达,并使监督官如何理解他们非规范的悔恨表现复杂化;(b) 精神症状如何减轻被告用来发展和“感觉”自责的情绪行为,特别是他们迟钝的同理心和对犯罪行为的认知障碍;以及(c)一些官员对被诊断为精神病的被告的个人素质做出了污名化的假设,这可能导致他们对自己的悔恨持批评态度。然后,根据前两个领域的观点,官员们讨论了提供被告精神疾病的信息,以及对他们表现或发展悔恨能力的潜在影响,以支持在陈述报告中提出的量刑分流建议。讨论了结论,以及悔恨评估如何影响对有精神病诊断的被告的缓刑建议。

Ranking the Openness of Criminology Units: An Attempt to Incentivize the Use of Librarians, Institutional Repositories, and Unit-Dedicated Collections to Increase Scholarly Impact and Justice 对犯罪学单位的开放性进行排名:试图激励图书馆员、机构资料库和单位专用馆藏的使用,以增加学术影响和公正

In this article, I describe and explain a way for criminologists—as individuals, as groups, and, especially, as university units (e.g., colleges, departments, schools)—to increase the quantity and quality of open criminology. They should ask university librarians to make their outputs open access (OA) on their “unit repositories” (URs), which are unit-dedicated “collections” on universities’ institutional repositories (IR). I try to advance this practice by devising and employing a metric, the “URscore,” to document, analyze, and rank criminology units’ contributions to open criminology, as prescribed. To illustrate the metric’s use, I did a study of 45 PhD-granting criminology units in the United States. I found almost all of them have access to an IR; less than two thirds have a UR; less than one third have used it this decade; their URs have a total of 190 open outputs from the 2020s, with 78% emanating from the top three “most open” PhD-granting criminology units in the United States: University of California, Irvine (with 72 open outputs), John Jay College of Criminal Justice (with 47 such outputs), and University of Nebraska, Omaha (with 30 such outputs). I end with a discussion of critical issues, instructions, and futures, including what I learned from publishing this article’s preprint.
在这篇文章中,我描述并解释了一种犯罪学家——作为个人,作为团体,特别是作为大学单位(如学院,系,学校)——提高公开犯罪学的数量和质量的方法。他们应该要求大学图书馆员在他们的“单位存储库”(URs)上开放获取(OA)他们的产出,这些单位存储库是大学机构存储库(IR)上的单位专用“馆藏”。我试图通过设计和使用一个度量标准来推进这一实践,“URscore”,按照规定记录、分析和排名犯罪学单位对开放犯罪学的贡献。为了说明这个指标的用途,我对美国45个授予博士学位的犯罪学单位进行了研究。我发现几乎所有的人都有红外线;不到三分之二的人有尿毒症;不到三分之一的人在这十年中使用过它;从21世纪20年代起,他们的研究生院共有190个开放产出,其中78%来自美国前三名“最开放”的授予博士学位的犯罪学单位:加州大学欧文分校(72个开放产出),约翰杰伊刑事司法学院(47个这样的产出)和内布拉斯加大学奥马哈分校(30个这样的产出)。最后,我讨论了关键问题、指导和未来,包括我从发表本文预印本中学到的东西。

Baseball and Science: What Roberto Clemente and Willie Mays Can Teach Us About Measuring Scholarly Impact 《棒球与科学:罗伯托·克莱门特和威利·梅斯如何衡量学术影响

Citation-based indicators of scholarly impact are controversial in the sciences. Although they are often used in rankings of institutions, scholarly works, and scholars themselves, they have been criticized for their failure to capture a wider spectrum of “scholarly impact.” Much like the “five tools” that baseball players can use to influence the outcome of a baseball game, there are a lot of different ways that scholars can have an impact with their work. Accordingly, this article discusses multiple dimensions of impact—research (publications and citations), student mentorship, institutional and programmatic development, community engagement, and the discipline at large—where scholars can make a difference in people’s lives. In the end, the broader message is that, while there will inevitably be few players like Roberto Clemente or Willie Mays in the sciences, there are still several important ways that scholars can make an impact.
基于引文的学术影响指标在科学界是有争议的。虽然它们经常被用于机构、学术著作和学者本身的排名,但它们因未能捕捉更广泛的“学术影响”而受到批评。就像棒球运动员可以用来影响棒球比赛结果的“五种工具”一样,学者可以通过很多不同的方式影响他们的工作。因此,本文讨论了影响的多个维度——研究(出版物和引用)、学生指导、机构和项目发展、社区参与以及更大范围的学科——学者可以在这些方面改变人们的生活。最后,更广泛的信息是,虽然在科学领域,像罗伯托·克莱门特(Roberto Clemente)或威利·梅斯(Willie Mays)这样的玩家不可避免地会很少,但学者们仍然可以在几个重要的方面产生影响。

Research using citation counts as a metric for measuring scholarly influence and prestige generally gives equal weighting to all authors of a scholarly work. However, as the order of authors frequently reflects the relative importance and involvement of authors, it may be more valid to consider this issue when examining citations. This article focuses on citations in Criminology and gives authors a score based on their order in the author list. Only the first five authors in each reference are counted, so the first author is given a score of 5, the second author a score of 4, and so on. In addition, citation analysis typically counts the total number of citations, rather than the number of different articles in which a scholar is cited. Arguably, the number of different articles is a more valid measure because it shows how many other authors are influenced by a scholar. A large number of citations in a small number of articles may reflect a relatively small amount of scholarly influence. This article shows the effect of counting the number of different articles in which a scholar is cited. We argue that citation analysis would be improved by taking account of the order of authors and the number of different articles.
使用引用计数作为衡量学术影响力和声望的指标的研究通常会对学术作品的所有作者给予同等的权重。然而,由于作者的顺序经常反映作者的相对重要性和参与度,在审查引文时考虑这个问题可能更有效。本文关注犯罪学中的引文,并根据作者在作者列表中的顺序给作者打分。每个参考文献中只有前五位作者被计算在内,因此第一位作者的得分为5,第二位作者的分数为4,依此类推。此外,引文分析通常计算引用的总数,而不是学者被引用的不同文章的数量。可以说,不同文章的数量是一个更有效的衡量标准,因为它显示了有多少其他作者受到一位学者的影响。少量文章中的大量引用可能反映出相对较小的学术影响力。这篇文章展示了计算一位学者被引用的不同文章数量的效果。我们认为,引用分析可以通过考虑作者的顺序和不同文章的数量来改进。

Beyond Citation Counts: Reassessing Top Criminologists’ “Influence” With Altmetric Scores 超越引文计数:用Altmetric分数重新评估顶尖犯罪学家的“影响力”

Criminal justice and criminology (CCJ), like many academic disciplines, conducts its share of rankings. Citation-based ranks of individual scholars are particularly popular, and they tend to consistently identify the field’s supposedly “top” scholars and “academic stars.” Whether citations equate with “influence,” however, is up for debate. At the least, citation-based metrics are unidimensional and fail to capture attention outside academia. Accordingly, we drew on the work of Cohn et al. and re-ranked top-cited scholars using the Google Chrome “Altmetric it!” bookmarklet. As expected, the Altmetrics methodology fundamentally altered past rankings. The most influential scholars in our rankings, Terrie E. Moffitt and Avshalom Caspi, received higher Altmetric scores than all the remaining ranked scholars combined.
与许多学术学科一样,刑事司法和犯罪学(CCJ)也有自己的排名。基于引文的学者个人排名尤其受欢迎,他们倾向于一致地确定该领域所谓的“顶尖”学者和“学术明星”。然而,引文是否等同于“影响力”还有待商榷。至少,基于引文的指标是一维的,未能引起学术界的关注。因此,我们借鉴了Cohn等人的研究成果,并使用谷歌Chrome“Altmetric it!”书签对顶尖学者进行了重新排名。正如预期的那样,Altmetrics方法从根本上改变了过去的排名。在我们的排名中,最有影响力的学者Terrie E.Moffitt和Avshalom Caspi获得的Altmetric分数高于其他所有排名学者的总和。

As a means for measuring scholarly influence, citation analysis has several limitations and shortcomings. We first review the main sources of citation data (Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, and information collected directly from reference lists) and discuss the shortcomings of each source. Next, we review five significant limitations of citation analysis as a methodology (academic over popular interest, various motivations for citing, manipulation potential, failure to account for author ordering, and citations only appearing in “indexed” journals). The issues we touch on set the stage for the remainder of the articles in this special issue.

Evaluating Research and Scholarly Impact in Criminology and Criminal Justice in the United Kingdom and Italy: A Comparative Perspective 英国和意大利犯罪学和刑事司法研究及其学术影响的比较评价

What scholarly impact is, and how it is evaluated, vary across different countries. In the United Kingdom, for instance, scholarly impact is mainly assessed through the Research Excellence Framework (REF) in the context of providing—among other things—accountability for public investment in research, demonstrating the public benefits of research, and informing the selective allocation of research funding. In the REF system, impact needs to show a demonstrable effect on change, or evidence of benefits outside academia, and is formally assessed through case studies. In Italy, there is a comparable system for evaluating research, known as Evaluation of Research Quality, but in this latter case, the focus is on the quality of selected research outputs as indicators of research performance. Impact is here considered with reference to the so-called third mission (which includes activities aimed at the valorization of research, and activities that have positive spillovers into society at large) and is evaluated separately. Our contribution aims at critically analyzing the commonalities and differences of these two systems when it comes to evaluating research in Criminology and Criminal Justice, considering some of the benefits and potential pitfalls of research evaluation in both regions, and discussing how these disciplines are framed and delimited differently in the two countries considered.
学术影响是什么,以及如何评估,在不同的国家有所不同。例如,在英国,学术影响主要通过卓越研究框架(REF)进行评估,其中包括为研究的公共投资提供问责制,展示研究的公共利益,并为研究资金的选择性分配提供信息。在REF系统中,影响需要显示出对变革的明显影响,或学术界以外的利益证据,并通过案例研究进行正式评估。在意大利,有一个可比的研究评估系统,称为研究质量评估,但在后一种情况下,重点是选定研究产出的质量,作为研究绩效的指标。在这里,影响是参照所谓的第三次任务来考虑的(包括旨在使研究增值的活动,以及对整个社会产生积极影响的活动),并分别进行评估。我们的贡献旨在批判性地分析这两个系统在评估犯罪学和刑事司法研究时的共性和差异,考虑这两个地区研究评估的一些好处和潜在陷阱,并讨论这两个国家如何以不同的方式构建和界定这两个学科。

Prior research has frequently employed various methods for investigating issues surrounding publication productivity and authorship, including examinations of the number of co-authors in peer-reviewed journal articles and the order of authorship. Relying on 5 years of data from publications from the “Big 5” journals in criminology and criminal justice (i.e., Criminology, Journal of Research in Crime & Delinquency, Journal of Quantitative Criminology, Crime & Delinquency, and Justice Quarterly), the current study extends this extant research by providing a social network analysis of publishing networks. Results are consistent with previous findings, suggesting that publishing networks are largely decentralized, although key networks and definitive leaders in these networks exist as well.

先前的研究经常采用各种方法来调查围绕出版效率和作者身份的问题,包括同行评审期刊文章中共同作者的数量和作者身份的顺序。基于犯罪学和刑事司法“五大”期刊(即犯罪学、犯罪与犯罪研究期刊、数量犯罪学期刊、犯罪与犯罪研究期刊和司法季刊)5年的出版物数据,当前的研究通过提供出版网络的社会网络分析来扩展现有的研究。结果与先前的发现一致,表明出版网络在很大程度上是分散的,尽管这些网络中的关键网络和最终领导者也存在。此外,还确定了几位对出版网络具有重要影响力的作者。讨论了研究的局限性和未来的研究方向。

Citation counts have commonly been used to measure “influence” of criminal justice and criminology (CCJ) scholars and articles. However, citation counts do not reflect influence outside of academia and thus may not be the best way to determine the true impact of scholarly work. This study uses the Altmetrics Attention Score (AAS) to measure which CCJ articles are the most influential in CCJ. Results demonstrate how AAS affects the ranking of “top” articles relative to the typical citation count measures. Implications for future ranking studies are discussed.
引文计数通常被用来衡量刑事司法和犯罪学(CCJ)学者和文章的“影响力”。然而,引文计数并不能反映学术界之外的影响,因此可能不是确定学术工作真正影响的最佳方式。本研究使用Altmetrics注意力评分(AAS)来衡量哪些CCJ文章在CCJ中最具影响力。结果表明,相对于典型的引用计数指标,AAS如何影响“顶级”文章的排名。讨论了对未来排名研究的启示。
