Peer Reviewed Research Methodology

 The K-12 SSDB includes detailed information about each incident, a reliability score that quantifies the dependability of the information, and the verified primary source citation(s) (e.g., newspaper article, court records, interviews, police reports) to allow for further academic research. The scope is widely inclusive to allow for a comprehensive view of the issue. 


Through the inclusion, rather than exclusion, of criteria that are cross-referenced, unfiltered, and agnostic, users can conduct more detailed analyses of gun violence in schools within their areas of interest from which to make better informed decisions about school safety.
