Using a Content Management System: Police Crime Research Methods Part 3

Professor Phil Stinson at Bowling Green State University has developed an innovative enhanced relational database to support his federally funded police integrity research. Using the university’s enterprise level content management system, he has structured a relational, digital imaging, and video database to support his quantitative content analysis research on police crime in the United States. Recently, Dr. Stinson has integrated a customized PC based coding instrument that draws data from the relational database and creates data files for later quantitative analyses. He discusses his research application of the content management system in this episode of the Police Integrity Lost podcast.
