摘要

本文旨在推动理解和扩展翻译犯罪学作为改进刑事司法研究和政策,包括法律,计划和实践的手段的努力。为此,它将翻译犯罪学概念化为一项合作活动,涉及研究人员、政策制定者、从业者和社区,并以评估研究框架为基础。使用这个框架强调了翻译犯罪学可以沿着五个不同的维度为研究、政策和实践提供信息:(1)确定特定政策的必要性;(2)为这些政策建立强大的理论和经验基础;(3)根据政策设计和当地情况监测和改进实施情况;(4)监测结果和评估影响,包括潜在危害,重点是确定提高有效性和减少危害的方法。(5)建立对成本效率的准确估计,并为评估政策是否应该终止、继续或扩大奠定基础。翻译犯罪学的机会是巨大的,并且具有推进科学和改善刑事司法政策的创造和设计,实施,有效性和成本效率的潜力。

Translational Criminology Through an Evaluation Framework: Improving Research and Policy

This paper seeks to advance efforts to understand and extend translational criminology as a means by which to improve criminal justice research and policy, including laws, programs, and practices. To this end, it conceptualizes translational criminology as a collaborative activity, one that involves researchers and policymakers, practitioners, and communities, and is grounded in an evaluation research framework. Using this framework highlights that translational criminology can inform research, policy, and practice along five distinct dimensions: (1) Identifying the need for particular policies, (2) developing a strong theoretical and empirical foundation for them, (3) monitoring and improving implementation that aligns with the design of the policy and local context, (4) monitoring outcomes and assessing impacts, including potential harms, with a focus on identifying ways to increase effectiveness and minimize harms, and (5) creating accurate estimates of cost-efficiency and a foundation for informing assessment of whether policies should be terminated, continued, or expanded. Opportunities for translational criminology are substantial and hold the potential for advancing science and improving criminal justice policy creation and design, implementation, effectiveness, and cost-efficiency.

期刊介绍: The American Journal of Criminal Justice, the official journal of the Southern Criminal Justice Association, is a peer reviewed publication; manuscripts go through a blind review process. The focus of the Journal is on a wide array of criminal justice topics and issues. Some of these concerns include items pertaining to the criminal justice process, the formal and informal interplay between system components, problems and solutions experienced by various segments, innovative practices, policy development and implementation, evaluative research, the players engaged in these enterprises, and a wide assortment of other related interests. The American Journal of Criminal Justice publishes original articles that utilize a broad range of methodologies and perspectives when examining crime, law, and criminal justice processing.
