Page 47, Third paragraph:
Employing the refined procedures, neighborhood observations used in the analysis were conducted by a six-member team using a city-owned van. The team consisted of a driver, a “navigator” directing the driver through a systematic predetermined route, two observers of physical indicators, and two observers of social indicators. Observers noted on recording sheets (Figures 2 and 3) the presence/absence and frequency of the Table 1 indicators. Each observer had completed successfully the training tool (following Weisburd et al. 2004) related to physical (Figure 4) or social (Figure 5) indicators, and a tape recorder was present in the vehicle to capture any comments made by investigators and/or the driver for later documentation.
