Biography
Dr. Jones' research is primarily in the area of criminology. As a quantitative researcher, Dr. Jones examines how factors like neighborhood poverty, peer associations, family attachment, and self-control predict adolescent and young adult substance use, delinquency, crime, and, on the other end of the continuum, well-being and pro-social behavior. Currently, he is collaborating with a team of researchers who are looking into how adolescents make healthy transitions into young adulthood. Additionally, Dr. Jones is Vice Chair of Faculty Council and the Honors Coordinator for the Tuscarawas campus.
