Transit Dependents, Choice Riders, and Service Criticality: An Analysis of the Determinants of Bus Ridership in the Philadelphia Region

69A3551747111This report presents the results of two interrelated projects on transit ridership in the SEPTA region. The first focuses on developing and testing an empirically based theory of transit-dependency using a predictive model of transit mode choice in the Philadelphia region. The second examines station-level shifts in transit use in response to the Covid-19 outbreak in the Philadelphia region and how these correspond with the distribution of transit dependents throughout the region

Policing a Negotiated World: A Partial Test of Klinger’s Ecological Theory of Policing

The primary goal of the current study is to examine a portion of Klinger’s theory. Specifically, we test the influence of organizational and environmental contextual factors, guided by Klinger’s theory, on one measure of officer vigor. To date, few studies have taken this approach to examine Klinger’s theory. The study builds on prior research that has tested aspects of Klinger’s theory and adds new analytic strategies that prior studies have not used. The results of this study have implications for both theory and practice, and they add to the growing literature examining the influence of ecological and organization factors on police behavior
