  • "Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design in Parking Facilities" by Mary S. Smith. National Institute of Justice, NIJ Research in Brief, Apr 1996, NCJ 157310.
  • "Physical Environment and Crime" by Ralph B. Taylor and Adele V. Harrell. NIJ Research Report, National Institute of Justice, May 1996, NCJ 157311. Can physical features of the environment prevent crime or reduce problems thought to be crime related, such as fear of crime or residents' concerns about neighborhood viability? Crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) focuses on the settings in which crimes occur and on techniques for reducing vulnerability in these settings.
