Spatial and Temporal Correlates of Specific Cause Mortality

项目摘要。 该项目将利用资源在美国建立两个警察凶杀案数据库（2000-2018年） 由致命邂逅项目开发这些警方的凶杀案数据将与几个独特的 收集有关警察部门特征、平民犯罪 袭击/杀害警察的案件以及社会人口普查数据。这个国家警察凶杀案数据库 然后可以被项目小组和其他研究人员用来测试警察杀人案的相关性， 一个非常重要的公共卫生问题。该项目还将建立一个地理信息系统数据库， 警察杀人案，以便其他研究人员研究警察杀人案对 人口健康、健康差距、社区福祉和警察/社区关系。 我们的具体目标如下： 1.完成主干数据、致命遭遇的更新、编码、清理和地理编码 (FE)该数据库将全面记录2000年至2018年的所有警察杀人案。 2.将来自Fatal Encounters的联合收割机数据和多个国家/联邦数据源结合起来， 警察杀人数据库（NPHD）。 a. NPHD将公开提供并广泛传播，以便研究人员能够 测试美国警察杀人案的原因 B.我们将使用NPHD来测试与警察部门政策相关的独特假设， 警察杀人案的关联 3.建立一个地理信息系统地理数据库，其中载有警察杀人事件的精确地理位置，名为国家警察 凶杀地理数据库。 《国家卫生发展战略》将向公众公布并广泛传播，以便研究人员 地理上的数据可以测试警察杀人对健康的独立影响 以及警察/社区关系。

Project Summary. This project will create two police homicide databases in the United States (2000-2018) using resources developed by the Fatal Encounters project. These police homicide data will be merged with several unique public data sources that collect information about police-department characteristics, civilian crime, assaults/killing of police officers, and socio-demographic Census data. This national police homicide database can then be used by the project team and other researchers to test the correlates of police homicides—a uniquely important public health problem. This project will also create a GIS database which geo-codes all police homicides in order for other researchers to study the independent effect of police homicides on population health, health disparities, community well-being, and police/community relations. Our specific aims are as follows: 1. Finalize updating, coding, cleaning, and geo-coding of the backbone data, the Fatal Encounters (FE) database, which will comprehensively document all police homicides from 2000-2018. 2. Combine data from Fatal Encounters and several national/federal data sources to create a National Police Homicide Database (NPHD). a. The NPHD will be made publicly available and disseminated widely so that researchers can test the causes of police homicides in the U.S. b. We will use the NPHD to test unique hypotheses related to police-department-policy and contextual correlates of police homicides. 3. Create a GIS geo-database with precise geo-locations of police homicides, titled the National Police Homicide Geo-Database (NPHGD). The NPHGD will be made publicly available and disseminated widely so that researchers with geographically linkable data can test the independent effects of police homicides on health and well-being and police/community relations.
