Law Enforcement Educational Performance Youth

项目摘要

This project examines the consequences of neighborhood and school-level exposure to aggressive law enforcement strategies and tactics for the educational outcomes of youth. Over the last three decades, cities across the United States have adopted strategies involving strict enforcement against low-level crimes and extensive use of pedestrian stops. As a consequence of these changes in strategies and tactics, an increasing number of youth have involuntary contact with the criminal justice system. The primary objective of this project is to examine the consequences of neighborhood and school-level exposure to these strategies and tactics for the educational outcomes of youth as a function of a number of factors, such as neighborhood and individual characteristics. Findings will contribute to our understanding of the link between the criminal justice system and social opportunity. They will benefit society by helping policymakers and other stakeholders make more informed decisions about enforcement.The project will build a large-scale data infrastructure by combining administrative school district records from New York City and New York Police Department (NYPD) data over the years 2004 to 2017. This data infrastructure is the foundation for a series of statistical analyses that estimate effects on educational outcomes by various demographic categories and explore the underlying mechanisms. Goals of the project include determining short-term and long-term consequences of law enforcement strategies. The project also examines how the consequences differ by demographic characteristic, as well as showing effects of school-level exposure, determining effects of high-profile cases, and uncovering the mechanisms that explain the outcomes.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目研究了社区和学校一级接触积极的执法战略和战术的青年教育成果的后果。在过去的三十年里，美国各地的城市都采取了包括严格执法打击低级别犯罪和广泛使用行人站的战略。由于战略和战术的这些变化，越来越多的青年非自愿地接触到刑事司法系统。本项目的主要目标是研究社区和学校一级接触这些战略和战术的青年教育成果作为一个功能的一些因素，如邻里和个人特征的后果。调查结果将有助于我们理解刑事司法系统和社会机会之间的联系。该项目将把2004年至2017年期间来自纽约市的行政学区记录和纽约警察局（NYPD）的数据结合起来，建立一个大规模的数据基础设施。这一数据基础设施是一系列统计分析的基础，这些分析估计了各种人口类别对教育成果的影响，并探讨了潜在的机制。该项目的目标包括确定执法战略的短期和长期后果。该项目还考察了不同人口统计学特征的后果，以及学校层面的曝光效果，确定高知名度案例的影响，并揭示解释结果的机制。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
