Item type:Publication, Homicide clearance in Western Europe(2019) ;Marieke Liem ;Suonpää, Karoliina ;Lehti, Martti ;Kivivuori, JanneGranath, SvenThis study provides an overview of homicide clearance in four West European countries: Finland, the Netherlands, Sweden and Switzerland. Using data from the European Homicide Monitor, employing similar definitions and uniform coding schemes, this study allowed for unique crosscountry comparisons in factors influencing differences in homicide clearance rates. Findings based on homicides occurring in the period 2009-14 revealed overall low homicide rates in all countries, with a wide variety in homicide clearance rates, ranging from 77 percent in the Netherlands to 98 percent in Finland. Results further showed that both event-based as well as victim-based characteristics significantly influenced the likelihood of homicide clearance, suggesting that homicide clearance rates can, for a large part, be attributed to the prevalent types of homicide in each of these European countries.Type:journal articleJournal:European Journal of CriminologyVolume:16Issue:1Scopus© Citations 55 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Employee offences: What strategy of prevention for what business?Investment in the prevention of employee offences is relatively low in comparison with resources deployed to combat other types of crime. Chief among the reasons for this deficiency are the difficulty in tackling employee offences from a preventive perspective and the lack of available information to evaluate the efficacy of existing preventive measures. On the basis of data collected from more than 2000 Swiss firms operating in the financial and commercial sector, this article classifies the most common strategy types used by firms to prevent employee offences, estimates their efficiency and identifies the structural, environmental and organizational factors affecting their operation.Type:journal articleJournal:Security journalVolume:30Issue:3Scopus© Citations 1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Commentary: ‘Smoking, caning and delinquency in a secondary modern school’: A pioneer study by JW PalmerIn a paper published in the British Journal of Preventive and Social Medicine in 1965, JW Palmer presented findings that may be very dated.1 The analysis, the interpretation of the data and the conclusions he reached, however, deserve the attention of contemporary researchers in the fields of criminology, criminal justice and epidemiology. Sadly, many of the problems identified by Palmer are still waiting to be solved.Type:journal articleJournal:International Journal of EpidemiologyVolume:44Issue:1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
