In this audio seminar I discuss COMPSTAT (Computerized Statistics). More specifically, I cover its origins, objectives, strengths and limitations, how it's utilized in practice, and how it's similar or different relative to evidence-based policing. Originally recorded for SOC 4451 (Policing) at the University of Western Ontario.

As discussed in the focused deterrence seminar, deterrence initiatives can be very specific. In this audio seminar I discuss approaches to passive deterrence, such as crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) and passive forms of police presence. Originally recorded for SOC 4451 (Policing) at the University of Western Ontario.

In this audio seminar I discuss some behavioural insights that can be employed to understand aspects of criminality, such as rational choice theory. I also discuss the use of nudge theory within the context of policing. Originally recorded for SOC 4451 (Policing) at the University of Western Ontario.

There are lots of different policing programs that have been used or continue to be used in practice, but where do they even come from? This audio seminar seeks to shed some light on this question. Originally recorded for SOC 4451 (Policing) at the University of Western Ontario.
