This article reports on an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of the effects of street lighting interventions on crime in public places. Following Campbell Collaboration guidelines, it uses robust criteria for inclusion of studies, comprehensive search strategies to identify eligible studies, a detailed protocol for coding key study characteristics, and rigorous methods for analyzing studies. A total of 21 studies met the inclusion criteria, originating in four countries (United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, and South Korea) and covering almost 50 years (1974–2021). The review finds that street lighting interventions are associated with a significant desirable effect on total crime (14% reduction in treatment areas compared with comparable control areas); desirable effects are greater in studies that measured both night and day crimes than in studies that only measured night crimes; and street lighting is followed by a significant reduction in property crimes, but not in violent crimes.

街道照明对预防犯罪的影响和政策相关性：基于半个世纪评估研究的系统评价

本文报告了对街道照明干预对公共场所犯罪的影响的最新系统评价和荟萃分析。根据 Campbell Collaboration 指南，它使用稳健的研究纳入标准、全面的搜索策略来识别符合条件的研究、编码关键研究特征的详细协议以及分析研究的严格方法。共有 21 项研究符合纳入标准，来自四个国家（美国、英国、巴西和韩国），涵盖近 50 年（1974-2021 年）。审查发现，街道照明干预与对总犯罪率的显着理想影响相关（与可比控制区域相比，治疗区域减少了 14%）；测量夜间和白天犯罪的研究比只测量夜间犯罪的研究更理想；和街道照明之后，财产犯罪显着减少，但暴力犯罪却没有。
