Take a journey with Dr. Sarah Casella-Jones as she explores her interaction with Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) and how her focus has changed throughout her career from Behavior-Based Safety (BBS) on an airport tarmac and autism therapists to working with law enforcement to increase their data entry for future law predictive analysis. Here’s a sample of her manuscript:  

 A limited number of research articles in behavioral sciences have examined the use of data science techniques amongst behavioral science literature, but more specifically with law enforcement and crime analysis. For this review, the author analyzed eight behavior science peer-reviewed journals for the presence and relevance of specific keywords to identify data science usage in law enforcement articles. Overall, the author found an underwhelming amount of data science techniques being used in the field in general and more specifically from a law enforcement lens. Finally, the author intends to discuss these results and suggest a greater attention be paid to increasing the use of data science applications in behavioral science research overall and in law enforcement research.
