Data-Driven Decision Making Externship with CIYJ

A data analysis externship with the Center for Improving Youth Justice, focused on extracting patterns from two decades of juvenile justice records.

Data AnalysisPythonData VisualizationStatistical Research

Overview

The externship analyzed CIYJ's multi-decade dataset of incident reports, surveys, demographics, and outcome measures. The work involved defining analytical scope and clarifying what correlational methods could reveal and not reveal within that dataset. It established a conceptual framework for subsequent empirical analyses.

What I've accomplished

I inspected the CIYJ dataset and documented its structure, including row and column counts, units of analysis, additional sheets, and locations of variable descriptions in the codebook.

Project breakdown

I inspected the CIYJ file, recorded that it had 165 rows and 84 columns, noted the unit of analysis (facility/staff/youth/incident), identified additional sheets and a separate codebook, and documented where variable descriptions appeared.
