The published articles explore disciplines such as Criminology, Social psychology, Human factors and ergonomics, Suicide prevention and Occupational safety and health. The journal publications explore themes in Criminology like Criminal justice and Prison and link them with other fields of study like Perspective (graphical). In addition to Social psychology research, the journal articles aim to explore topics under Juvenile delinquency and General strain theory.
The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Criminology, Criminal justice, Sanctions, Cybercrime and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.

A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 13.16% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 24.24% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.12% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.15% of all publications and 48.48% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
