We have a new chapter out now in Policing & Firearms: New Perspective and Insights. @JuliaYesberg and @ben1971b find that trust, political orientation and ethnicity are the strongest predictors of reactions to armed police

New #openaccess paper out now in Journal of Interpersonal Violence. Zoë Hobson, @juliayesberg and @ben1971 looked at the preventative effect of knife imagery in media campaigns and found no effect, but seeing knife imagery did make people think about death https://t.co/hAnoJc1GxY

Public service announcement. The Institute for Global City Policing is now the Centre for Global City Policing. Purely for boring bureaucratic reasons. Our work continues as before! @UCLCrimeScience

New paper from Zoe Hobson @JuliaYesberg and me looking at the preventative effect of knife imagery in media campaigns. TL;DR no effect, really, but they do make people think of death. https://t.co/Gfbj93x7r1

New open access paper from Zoe Hobson @JuliaYesberg @jacksojp and me on why people may or may not trust policing decisions made by algorithms. TL;DR - it's a little complicated! https://t.co/RQVZIHIaP7

Different groups are searched at different rates – men aged 18-24 identifying as Black were on-average 19 times more likely to be searched than the population at large. The reasons for this are likely to be a complex mix of different factors, with no single cause.

[Matt Ashby @LessCrime]

Our updated @IGCP_UCL analysis of #stopandsearch in London, now covering the year 2020, shows the annual number of searches increased above 300,000 for the first year since 2013.
