Collective morality and crime in the Americas (2012)
Book
Birkbeck, C. (2012). Collective morality and crime in the Americas. London; New York: Routledge

This study examines the ways in which the moral community is "talked into being" in relation to crime, and the objects of concern that typically occupy its attention. It maps the imagined moral universe of the virtuous and the criminal and charts the... Read More about Collective morality and crime in the Americas.

Heterogeneity in the frequency distribution of crime victimization (2012)
Journal Article
Hope, T., & Norris, P. (2012). Heterogeneity in the frequency distribution of crime victimization. Journal of Quantitative Criminology, 29(4), 543-578. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10940-0120-9190-x

Objectives: Tests the idea that the frequency distribution typically observed in cross-sectional crime victimization data sampled from surveys of general populations is a heterogeneously distributed result of the mixing of two latent processes associ...

Limb stiffness or musculotendinous stiffness (MTS) has previously been examined in relation to performance and characterized using a number of different methods. However, the fact that MTS shows only low to moderate correlations to performances may i... Read More about Lower limb mechanical properties : determining factors and implications for performance.

Bernstein’s levels of construction of movements applied to upper limb prosthetics (2012)
Journal Article
applied to upper limb prosthetics. Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, 24(2), 67-76

This article addresses the neuromotor control processes underlying the use of an upper limb prosthesis. Knowledge of these processes is used to make recommendations as to how prostheses and prosthesis training should develop to advance the functional...
