Gang affiliation and prison violence: a comparison of matching analyses
Objectives
The current study examines the influence of gang affiliation and specific gangs on prison misconduct, particularly serious and assaultive behavior.
Methods
Different matching procedures were employed with a large sample of gang and nongang inmates to minimize confounding factors likely to impact the effect of gang affiliation on outcome measures. A wide array of demographic variables associated with gang affiliation is included in multivariate analyses in predicting general, serious, and assaultive acts.
Results
Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and Coarsened Exact Matching (CEM) generally yielded similar results. Consistent with prior research, gang-affiliated inmates committed significantly higher rates of general and serious violations.
Conclusions
Researchers may prefer PSM over CEM when analyzing serious and rare behaviors. Prison gang affiliation is a significant contributing factor to various prison disciplinary outcomes, and specific gang affiliation significantly influences disciplinary outcomes.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Experimental Criminology focuses on high quality experimental and quasi-experimental research in the advancement of criminological theory and/or the development of evidence based crime and justice policy. The journal is also committed to the advancement of the science of systematic reviews and experimental methods in criminology and criminal justice. The journal seeks empirical papers on experimental and quasi-experimental studies, systematic reviews on substantive criminological and criminal justice issues, and methodological papers on experimentation and systematic review. The journal encourages submissions from scholars in the broad array of scientific disciplines that are concerned with criminology as well as crime and justice problems.
