ABSTRACT This study examines county-level predictors of Tennessee Handgun Carry Permit (THCP) rates for Tennessee. Using the 2011 Tennessee Handgun Carry database, supplemented by the 2009 Uniform Crime Reports, 2009 Tennessee Higher Education County Profile, and the 2000–2010 Tennessee Population Projections. We analyzed three models including a violent crime model, a property crime model, and the full model including violent and property crime. We did not find a significant relationship between violent crime rates on THCP rates in 2010, however, our findings do suggest that property crime rates negatively impact THCP rates at the county-level. Our findings further suggest that there is a correlation between college education and THCPs across all models.

田纳西州隐藏的手枪许可证:在县级检查预测许可证的因素

摘要本研究调查了田纳西州田纳西州手枪携带许可证(THCP)费率的县级预测因子。使用2011年田纳西州手枪携带数据库,并辅以2009年《统一犯罪报告》,2009年田纳西州高等教育县概况以及2000-2010年田纳西州人口预测。我们分析了三种模型,包括暴力犯罪模型,财产犯罪模型以及包括暴力和财产犯罪的完整模型。我们没有发现2010年暴力犯罪率与THCP率之间有显着关系,但是我们的发现确实表明,财产犯罪率对县级THCP率具有负面影响。我们的发现进一步表明,在所有模型中,大学教育与THCP之间存在相关性。
