Some of the studies the author lays out that he wants to compare are gang member\u2019s vs non-gang youth, cross gang-comparisons, comparisons across locations, and historical comparisons. \u00a0The research question for this proposal I believe is \u201cIs gang research more productive if it has comparisons to other research?\u201d \u00a0The author believes that gang research is much more productive when you can compare different researches. The type of data that Malcom will be using Expert Knowledge, Hidden Social Patterns, Acts Behaviors and Events, and Demographic data. He will use all these types so of data because he is comparing different studies and those studies have different types of data. His colleagues wrote articles about gang members and non-gang youth, this would be considered expert knowledge. He used Demographic data to look comparisons across gang locations. Meaning that he looked at gangs from different locations like Los Angeles and Boston. The different data collection methods that he used is Ethnography, Public and Private records, and In-depth interviews. The author has already found these methods for his sources. He has This proposal is useful because it gives me an idea on how to do the proposal myself. The author of this proposal starts out with his research question and what he is going to try and accomplish. Then he lays out the five topics that he will discuss and underneath those topics he puts the resources that he will use to support his ideas. Once he does the actual research it will be easy for him to do because he has a path that he has planned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: The Value of Comparisons in Street Gang Research Author: Malcom W.
