How many times can a myth be busted and someone receive a prize for it? The US-immigrant-crime myth was busted 130 years ago www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/epdf/10....

Is this mean price? Not max surely?

The task is typically broken down into small and manageable problems that are difficult, but far from impossible, to analyse and solve.

But could also be expressed as organizational issue. If capacity for analysis was placed more at the local level they would perhaps prioritize this type of analysis more..
Local police have started hiring their own analysts now the report states..

All of it I think. But a key issue is organizational with regional intel units not prioritizing it, it seems. Intel units are the main source of analysis, but intel is organized regionally, while demand for crime analysis is local. So lack of capacity and understanding at regional units key I guess

This is a slide I use quite a lot when doing POP training for police. Even when an agency or individual wants to follow SARA properly, there are so many institutional pressures on them to skip steps.

Departing from the SARA-model (Scanning-Analysis-Response-Assessment) the police is decent at Scanning (What is the problem) and Response (Intervening against the problem).
But rarely doing much of analysis (Why do we have the problem) or Assessment (Did our intervention have the desired effect).

I haven’t read the full piece, but the argument in the quote seems to be of the form “some good were produced without this” (leaving unsaid “and quite a lot of bad results, too”).

But the argument for pre-registration isn’t that it leads to good results, it’s that it makes results more trustworthy.

Looks good! And isn’t that light blue and white? The Malmö FF colors..

That they have to know enough to be able to fact check the output. If they can't, there's a very realistic chance the output will make them look like a fool.

Jag kommer absolut lyssna på framtida avsnitt också med intresse, men känner lite att det borde ha kunnat göras något ännu bättre av detta då det ändå finns många starka svenska forskare på området som (hittills? Får se vilka som dyker upp) inte varit med

Charlotta Thodelius är också mycket duktig och var med i första avsnittet, men därefter har det mest varit praktiker som pratat om anekdotiska bevis, eller svepande uttalanden om förändringar i specifika områden utan hänvisning till relevanta kontrollområden.

Det här är alltså ett område där vi har mkt bra svenska forskare. @vaniaceccato.bsky.social är ledande internationellt både avseende otrygga och brottsdrabbade platser, och hennes medarbetare Abraham har jag redan nämnt.
Vid Mau har vi också massor av forskning kring detta (varav Kronkvist nämnd).

Här känns det som att P1 satsat o h försökt göra något bra - med en mycket berömvärd ambition på ett viktigt ämne. Och med ett innehåll som mestadels är bra!
Men som ändå landat lite snett. Och jag är en av typ tio forskare i Sverige som kan se detta. Kanske alltid är såhär på mer nischade program?
