    Journal of Criminal Justice and Law Review : Vol. 1 • No. 1 • June 2009 IDENTIFYING LARGE REPLICABLE FILM POPULATIONS IN SOCIAL SCIENCE FILM RESEARCH: A UNIFIED FILM POPULATION IDENTIFICATION METHODOLOGY FRANKLIN T. WILSON Indiana State University ABSTRACT: Historically, a dominant proportion of academic studies of social science issues in theatrically released films have focused on issues surrounding crime and the criminal justice system. Additionally, a dominant proportion has utilized non-probability sampling methods in identifying the films to be analyzed. Arguably one of the primary reasons film studies of social science issues have used non-probability samples may be that no one has established definitive operational definitions of populations of films, let alone develop datasets from which researchers can draw. In this article a new methodology for establishing film populations for both qualitative and quantitative research–the Unified Film Population Identification Methodology–is both described and demonstrated. This methodology was created and is presented here in hopes of expand the types of film studies utilized in the examination of social science issues to those communication theories that require the examination of large blocks of media. Further, it is anticipated that this methodology will help unify film studies of social science issues in the future and, as a result, increase the reliability, validity, and replicability of the said studies. Keywords: UFPIM, Film, Core Cop, Methodology, probability. Mass media research conducted in the academic realm has generally been theoretical in nature, utilizing public data, with research agendas emanating from the academic researchers themselves. Academic studies cover a gambit of areas including, but not limited to, antisocial and prosocial effects of specific media content, uses and gratifications, agenda setting by the media, and the cultivation of perceptions of social reality (Wimmer & Dominick, 2003).

  • The Selective Use of Cinema in Criminal Justice Education
    The Selective Use of Cinema in Criminal Justice Education By Ryan Kellus Turner St. Edward's University School of Behavioral and Social Sciences David Perkins Criminal Justice Department Texas State University-San Marcos This article provides a generalized analysis of the significant role that one medium of popular culture, the movies, is capable of playing in criminal justice education, particularly at the undergraduate level. The article should be viewed as a generalized, “survey” type of effort. Only glimpses of the possibilities are intended here. The universe of specific worthwhile teaching points and the number of movies (or at least specific scenes from them) that individual criminal justice instructors might personally choose to introduce to their students are as varied as the discipline itself. We also labor under the assumption that no one knows the intended course objectives quite like the teacher actually delivering the course. Therefore, the film material that one instructor might choose to best convey the desired message(s) will often be different from that which is more appealing to another teacher. A few examples of potential applications are supplied simply to orient more teachers toward the concept involved, and to suggest that with certain caveats the old adage that “things in the real world aren’t like they are in the movies” may ignore some valuable lessons that film really is capable of delivering. Keywords: criminal justice education, cinema, pedagogy, public perception INTRODUCTION: PUBLIC PERCEPTION AND POPULAR CULTURE From what sources does society obtain its understanding of the criminal justice system? How do students learn of the tasks, obligations, interactions and ethics of the players within its component parts? The origins and ongoing reference points of the general public’s understanding of these topics are not easy to pinpoint.
