Name: Brian Francis

Abstract Details
This session discusses recent methods which have been deveoped for analysing crime and victimisation using UK data. The topics are wide-ranging. There are two presentations on modelling the spatial and temporal distribution of reported crime, with alternative approaches given. There are two papers on conviction data using the long conviction sequences available in the Offenders Index to investigate offence switching and specialisation using latent transition analysis, and examining the issue of escalation using linear mixed models. Finally there are two papers on modelling victimisation risk, one focusing on burglary and the other examining the risk of more general victimisation.
