Biography
Ronet D. Bachman, Ph.D., has published and numerous books, articles and papers on criminology and sociology. Her research interests are the epidemiology and etiology of violence, with particular emphasis on women, the elderly, and minority populations as well as research examining desistance from crime.
Bachman is the co-author of Statistical Methods for Criminology and Criminal Justice and co-editor of Explaining Criminals and Crime: Essays in Contemporary Criminal Theory. In addition, she is the author of Death and Violence on the Reservation and co-author of Stress, Culture, and Aggression; Murder American Style; and Violence: The Enduring Problem.
Bachman's most recent federally funded research was a mixed-methods study that examined the long-term desistance trajectories of criminal justice-involved individuals who have been followed with both quantitative and interview data for nearly 30 years. Her current state-funded research is assessing the needs of violent crime victims, especially those whose voices are rarely heard such as loved ones of homicide victims.
