137 Research and Development Impact RDI Fund to undertake a Crime Victimization and Fear of Crime Survey in Trinidad and Tobagothe first of its kind in the region. Among the major objectives of this study is the benchmarking of crime victimization and fear of crime which has not been systematically researched country-wide. The anticipated impacts at both the social and national levels include assessing the expres- sion of victimization experiences actual and perceived by a representative sample of citizens assessing change in modus operandi of policing by taking into consideration crime victimiza- tion data in developing policing strategiesand assessing commu- nity responses to victimization. The following are some of the other studies he is currently undertaking. Personality and Fear of Crime The study of individual differences has been vigorously pursued in psychological research. However little consideration has been given to how these dynamics relate to individuals responses to actual or perceived environmental threat. In building a model of vulnerability to explain responses to criminal victimizationthe big five personality characteristics extraversion agreeableness conscientiousnessneuroticismand openness have been simulta- neously explored with global fear and rational calculations of risk. The results of structural equation modelling revealed a signifi- cant linkage between neuroticism and fear and risk estimations. Time Perspective and Criminal Victimization While several macro-perspectives have been put forward to explain the nature of fear of crime few researchers have consid- ered other personal intrinsic factors that have come to constitute important predictors of fear of crime. The findings of this research study revealed that individuals who maintain a balanced time orientation an adaptive combina- tion of positive and negative time perspectives had significantly lower levels of fear of crime than respondents who showed a more negative temporal profile. The Impact of Emotion Reactivity and Perceptions of Victimization Emerging literature points to the importance of psychological states in the construction and maintenance of the fear of criminal victimi- zation Chadee Ng Ying 2013. Emotional reactivity or the intensity of individualsresponse to a wide array of stimuliand with high levels of intensity Nock Wedig Homberg Hooley 2008 is explored as a predictive factor in a revisited model of fear of crime. Media Representation of Crime Research continues on the assessment of the social psychological consequences on the representation of crime in the media. The media often capture the imaginations of their readers rather than the facts. However the public needs the media to know as well as to understand day to day events. This study is undertaking a content analysis of crime reports in the daily newspapers for the period January 1 2003 to December 31st 2012. Copy-Cat Behaviour Expansion of Research This study assesses the cognitive processing of informationlevels of empathy and copycat behaviour among juveniles in high and low risk institutions. This study was undertaken in collaboration with Professor Ray Surrette University of Central Florida.
