xDr. Beth Hardie is a Research Associate at the Institute of Criminology, a member of the Centre for Analytic Criminology, and Research Manager of the Peterborough Adolescent and Young Adult Development Study (PADS+) at the University of Cambridge. Her work is grounded in an analytical approach (guided by Situational Action Theory; SAT) that integrates individually and environmentally focused explanations of human behaviour, including crime. She has a particular and critical interest in the data collection and analytical methodology required for the analysis of situational interaction (the interaction between people and settings) in action.
