About the Book

The Process of Social Research in Criminal Justice and Criminology is designed with the undergraduate student and novice researcher in mind.

The inclusion of criminal justice-specific information and examples in this adaptation of Dixon et al.'s The Process of Social Research, along with detailed application exercises, ensures that this text helps students understand the value research skills, both in their studies and future careers.

About the Author :
Dr. Riane Bolin's current research interests include a variety of issues related to juvenile justice and delinquency, including juvenile corrections, delinquency prevention, drug use, and victimization. Dr. Bolin has been working on projects in a number of different research areas. Her work with Dr. Pate on undergraduate substance use has led to two publications: one with former undergraduate student Jenna McClintock exploring the impact of substance use among college students was published in The Social Science Journal and another examining the impact of strain on non-medical prescription drug use was accepted for publication in the Journal of Drug Issues. Additionally, she had an article entitled, "Drug use and abuse as primary motivators for male and female involvement in burglary: A comparison of self-reported differences among a random sample of male and female burglars" published in the Journal of Drug Issues. Dr. Bolin has also published in The Journal of Crime and Justice and Corrections: Policy, Practice, and Research. Dr. Bolin's current projects involve the professional orientation of probation and parole officers, as well as public opinion of blended sentencing.

Dr. Margaret Pate has several distinct areas of research. One of Dr. Pate's research interests include the decision-making process that begins with the apprehension of a suspect all the way to conviction for the various actors in the criminal justice system, including law enforcement, attorneys, and jurors, specifically decisions about evidence and perceptions of guilt. Dr. Pate also conducts research on various 3/17/20 teaching practices and the influence of these practices on student engagement and academic performance. Finally, Dr. Pate is also interested in issues of substance use among undergraduate students, including both the causes and consequences of such use. Dr. Pate has also published articles in each of her research areas, in journals such as Criminal Justice and Behavior, Journal of Criminal Justice Education, and The Social Science Journal.
