SUMMARY:Chris Wildeman: Does Incarceration Shape Trust in the State\, Community Engagement\, and Civic Participation?
DESCRIPTION:On February 12\, 2021\, Chris Wildeman\, Professor of Sociology at Duke University\, will present “Does Incarceration Shape Trust in the State\, Community Engagement\, and Civic Participation?” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2020-21 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. This year\, the CPC Interdisciplinary Research Seminars will be open to both CPC members and Social Epidemiology program members. \nAbstract \nIn this article\, we provide the most complete assessment to date of how incarceration is associated with trust in the state\, community engagement\, and civic participation in the United States. Our analysis uses data from the Family History of Incarceration Survey (FamHIS) and is rooted in the theoretical and normative observation that\, while highly salient and immensely disruptive\, incarceration is one of many factors that might influence community and civic engagement and that incarceration can be mobilizing or demobilizing\, potentially leading to net zero effects. Ultimately\, the results support three conclusions. First\, own incarceration is associated with a deep distrust of state institutions even after adjusting for a host of confounders and matching on observed characteristics. Second\, family member incarceration is associated with distrust of state institutions\, but these differences are roughly half the magnitude of the associations tied to own incarceration. These first two conclusions strongly mirror findings from existing research\, suggesting that the FamHIS data can provide reliable estimates of how incarceration shapes community engagement and civic participation. Finally\, and in a significant break from most research in this area\, neither own incarceration nor family member incarceration is associated with any of the 14 indicators of community and political participation we consider in any of the 84 models we run on participation (14 outcomes\, 3 models per outcome\, models including own incarceration and family member incarceration). Although the cross-sectional nature of our data precludes strong causal claims\, we see this finding as providing vital evidence that while there may be heterogenous effects of incarceration on community engagement and civic participation\, it appears that these heterogenous effects largely cancel each other out. \nBio \n\nChristopher Wildeman is Professor of Sociology at Duke University and Professor at the ROCKWOOL Foundation Research Unit. His work focuses on the prevalence\, causes\, and consequences of contact with the criminal legal system and the child welfare system for families.\n\nThis event will be held on Zoom. You can register here. We will post a recording after the talk. You can see previous events here.

SUMMARY:CPC Hackathon 2021
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, February 12\, 2021\n1:30 pm – 5:30 pm\nZoom \nRegister your team to participate by Wednesday\, February 3rd using this form.  \nFAQs\nWhat is the CPC hackathon? \nEach year\, CPC predoctoral trainees and postdoctoral scholars come together to form interdisciplinary teams and work on developing a research design for a population focused issue or problem. The goals for the hackathon are to stimulate interdisciplinary collaboration among trainees\, develop and exhibit your research design skills\, and have fun. \nWhat is the problem/issue that we will be hacking to solve? \nThe problem/issue will focus on a population-oriented topic. However\, the details of the problem/issue will not be announced until the beginning of the event. You will then have the afternoon to work on the issue/problem and prepare a presentation based on your design to a panel of faculty judges. \nWho can attend the event? \nThis event is open to all trainees (Population Science and Biosocial). However\, team registration is required. \nIs there a limit on how many teams that can sign up for the event? \nYes\, only six teams will be allowed to participate in the Hackathon\, so register early! \nWhat are the requirements for developing a team?\nThe requirements for team formation include: \n\nEach team should consist of 3-4 trainees\nTeams cannot have more than 1 postdoctoral scholar\nTeams cannot have more than 1 trainee that is in their first year of graduate studies at UNC\nThere must be at least 2 disciplines represented on each team\n\n\nWhat is the deadline to register my team for the event? \nAll teams must be registered by 5:00 PM on Wednesday\, February 3rd. Register your team here. Please designate one member from your team to fill out the form on behalf of all of the team members. \n\nHow will teams get judged? \nEach team will have 5 minutes to pitch their idea and 5 minutes for questions and answers. Your presentation can include PowerPoint slides\, audience participation\, or whatever you think will best communicate your team’s solution. Be as creative as you want! \n\nWho will be judging our presentations? \nWe have assembled an interdisciplinary judging panel of 3 CPC faculty fellows who are experts in population research. \n\nWhat will be the judging criteria? \nPresentations will be judged based the following criteria: \n\nDoes the presentation effectively address the question?\nHow creative is the research design?\nHow clear and focused is the research design?\nWhat is the likelihood that the design actually has the potential to push population science forward in this area of study?\n\n\nWhat does my team receive if we win the competition? \nThe prize package consists of an estimated $400 in cash value…. as well as some prizes donated by fellow CPCers that are truly priceless. The package will be announced the day of the event! \n\nIs there any prep required before the event? \nOnce you assemble your team and register for the event\, there is nothing else that you will need to do until the day of the event. \n\nWait\, we’re going to do this over Zoom? \nYes! Following introductions\, teams will split off to separate breakout rooms. We’ll then reconvene for presentation and awards. \nQuestions? \nFor more information about the Hackathon\, please contact Abigail Haydon.
