Understanding Children's Use of Secrecy in the Context of Eyewitness Reports

To investigate socioemotional influences on children's eyewitness accuracy, we examined children's reports for activities they were motivated to conceal. Forty-eight 3–6-year-old children participated in a standardized play session with their mothers. Half of the children were told by an experimenter not to play with certain toys, but did so at the urging of their mothers, who told their children to keep the play activities secret. The remaining children were not restricted from playing with the toys, nor told by their mothers to keep the play activities secret. Later, all children were interviewed about the activities with free narrative and detailed questions. Half were given an interview that consisted of highly suggestive questions; half were given an interview consisting of specific, less suggestive questions. Results indicated that older children who were instructed to keep events secret withheld more information than did older children not told to keep events secret. Younger children's reports were not significantly affected by the secret manipulation. There were no significant effects associated with interview type. We discuss implications for understanding the development of children's knowledge and use of secrecy, and applications of the research to issues that arise when child witnesses give reports in legal contexts.     

TRICARE; Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS); bonus payments in medically underserved areas. Final rule

This final rule implements a bonus payment, in addition to the amount normally paid under the allowable charge methodology, to physicians in medically underserved areas. For purposes of this rule, medically underserved areas are the same as those determined by the Secretary of Health and Human Services for the Medicare program. Such bonus payments shall be equal to the bonus payments authorized by Medicare, except as necessary to recognize any unique or distinct characteristics or requirements of the TRICARE program, and as described in instructions issued by the Executive Director, TRICARE Management Activity. This rule promotes a reimbursement enhancement to a limited number of physicians designed to increase TRICARE beneficiary access to care.

A cure for crime: Can mental health treatment diversion reduce crime among youth?

Youth crime is a serious social problem, as is the high proportion of young offenders in the juvenile justice system who have mental disorders. A recent policy innovation applies the theory of therapeutic jurisprudence and diverts youth with mental disorders to treatment in lieu of further court processing. The expansion of mental health diversion programs reflects an increasingly popular view that there is a causal relationship between youth mental disorders and crime. Policymakers who share this view place greater emphasis on rehabilitation and treatment as a way to reduce crime, rather than on stricter punishment. This paper considers the policy issues around youth mental health diversion programs. In addition, it evaluates the effect of a mental health diversion program for youth that was implemented in Texas. The paper finds that mental health diversion can be used effectively to delay or prevent youth recidivism.     

从某市公安警力配置情况看基层公安机关警力不足的表现及其原因和对策

基层公安机关警力不足不仅制约了公安职能的充分发挥,影响了公安机关的整体形象,而且损害了公安民警的身心健康,队伍凝聚力与吸引力受到挑战。公安机关任务量成倍增长,警力总量增长与之不相适应,侦查办案和治安管理的难度不断加大,执法要求越来越高,公安工作科技含量还不高,部分民警素质还不适应现代警务要求,警力资源内部配置不尽科学合理等,是造成当前基层公安机关警力不足的主要原因。而要解决基层公安机关警力不足的问题,一是增加公安专项编制,使基层公安机关警力与所承担任务尽可能相匹配;二是深化管理和改革,努力发挥现有警力资源的最大效能;三是以各种辅助力量为依托,实现向民力要警力;四是坚持科技强警,提升公安工作信息、技术和装备水平。

论帮助犯罪分子逃避处罚罪之应然主体

对帮助犯罪分子逃避处罚罪主体范围的理解和适用,见仁见智。以罪刑法定为指导对本罪主体进行法条解析：本罪之应然主体以“身份说”为主,兼采“职权说”,皆以负有查禁犯罪的职责为前提。查禁犯罪活动是从调查、发现犯罪人或犯罪事实开始,到立案侦查、审查起诉这一过程的活动。负有查禁犯罪活动职责的各级党委机关中的政法委工作人员,不能成为本罪之主体。     

论警察勤务的规范化管理

警察勤务的规范化建设是新生事物,涉及公安机关各警种的方方面面,既有传统观念的改变,又有内部运作和体制的调整。要革除警务工作中的积弊,从不规范到规范,从不明确到明确,从运行无序到规范操作,需要我们结合工作实际大胆探索、改革,寻求适合我国国情的有中国特色的警务规范化道路。
