Renée J. Mitchell (2021). Twenty-One Mental Models That Can Change Policing: A Framework for Using Data and Research for Overcoming Cognitive Bias.
- Authors

- Abstract
I particularly like the authors strategy of approaching this as a cognitive task, focussing on the way readers think about the world of policing, categorizing these as "mental models", or ways of thinking about the world. Twenty-One Mental Models That Can Change Policing: A Framework for Using Data and Research for Overcoming Cognitive Bias Traditionally Compstat and similar police management practices have measured simple counts of reported crime - but clearly not all crime is equal: for example, the harm caused by a serious assault is far more than that caused by shoplifting a tin of beans.
