Reexamining the Minneapolis Repeat Complaint Address Policing (RECAP) Experiment, 1986-1987
This study reexamines REPEAT COMPLAINT ADDRESS POLICING:
TWO FIELD EXPERIMENTS IN MINNEAPOLIS, 1985-1987 (ICPSR 9788). The
original Repeat Complaint Address Policing (RECAP) experiment was a
field study of the strategy of problem-oriented policing, which used
control and treatment groups consisting of specific addresses in the
city of Minneapolis. The impact of problem-oriented policing was
measured by comparing the number of 911 calls received for each
address during a baseline period to the number received during a
period when experimental treatments were in effect. Several features
of the original data distort the one-to-one correspondence between a
911 call and an event, such as the occurrence of multiple versions of
the same call in the databases. The current study identifies and
attempts to correct these occurrences by applying multiple levels of
data cleaning procedures to the original data to establish a better
one-to-one call-to-event correspondence.
