Knowledge and opinions of marijuana: A farewell to harms, or a learned path through the gateway?Hogan, Charles E 01 August 2011 (has links)
The Shackleford Marijuana Perception Survey is a series survey conducted on criminal justice students at Georgia State University. The current survey design is targeted towards determining perceptions of marijuana related issues at GSU related to the theoretical concepts of Social Learning Theory and the Gateway process of substance use escalation. The currentfindings will include the responses of 163 students in three criminal justice related classes. The major focus of the analysis will be the comparison of the results of the “marijuana knowledge test” section to the likert scale opinion section and the overall positive or negative opinion score for each respondent. It is the goal of this research is to measure and eventually tack changes in the opinions of students taking criminal justice themed classes at GSU as they pertain to marijuana and related issues. This research is called for by the increasing interest by State Legislations, and recently the federal government, in the reform of marijuana laws and policing practices. Understanding this, and other, samples’ level of knowledge and their relative opinions about this topic is needed in order to help formulate effective and efficient policy reform.

Graduates' Perceptions of the Criminal Justice Degree as Preparation for a Career in Law EnforcementFranks, George Robert 2009 August 1900 (has links)
There continues to be much debate in the criminal justice academic community
about the value of the degree in the practice of law enforcement. Most of the debate
centers on earlier research that was both non-discipline specific and did not include
direct data collected from persons holding the degree and serving as police officers.
Unfortunately, there is little identifiable research into whether criminal justice graduates
perceive their degree as having a positive impact on their career in law enforcement.
This research is an exploration of the relationship between criminal justice higher
education and the majoring graduate?s success in a law enforcement career. The research
is vital in understanding the perceived relationship between the criminal justice degree
and the law enforcement career from a program graduate/law enforcement practitioner
perspective.
The study utilized qualitative inquiry and interpretive phenomenological analysis
to develop major themes of the graduates' perceptions of how their criminal justice
degree has contributed to their success in a law enforcement career. The findings of the study indicate that most graduates perceive the degree as
having direct links between college course curriculum and the academy training
programs for law enforcement officers. There is also an indication that strong criminal
justice related writing requirements improve career opportunities. In addition, the study
supports the inclusion of required internship programs in the criminal justice curriculum,
and the use of regular and adjunct faculty with career experience in law enforcement.
