Jan Stockdale has considerable research and consultancy experience in diverse contexts. She has particular experience of social research design, methodological techniques and data analysis, including survey and questionnaire design, interviewing, analysis of qualitative and quantitative data, and process, impact and economic evaluation.

For over twenty years, she has been actively involved in research relating to policing, crime reduction and community safety. Research projects for the Home Office, other Government Departments and the Police Service have involved the use of a range of complementary techniques to examine a variety of interventions and training provision.

Her research includes process and impact evaluations of targeted policing initiatives directed at vehicle and drug-related crime; assessments of anti-burglary strategies and action against street robbery; quality control audits of police interviews and the presentation of police evidence in court; and analyses of the role and impact of neighbourhood and street wardens both in this country and elsewhere. She has also been involved in research into young people’s gang membership and their participation in street crime, the costs of anti-social behaviour, illegal use of firearms and action to tackle gun crime, and international comparisons of policing and crime reduction.

Most recently she has contributed to research examining the public’s responses to asylum seekers, conceptions of citizenship and representations of ageing. She is currently leading an evaluation of training designed to encourage and enhance entrepreneurial activity in both the business and education sectors
