Hmmm!
In that first question -- "A police officer takes an official report of a crime that is later shown to not have occurred. Accorrding to UCR regulations, this crime is not considered to ..." -- the second "not" (the one in bold) makes this question tricky.
Which one do you think makes best sense?

For the first question, the correct answer is C) be classified as filed as a false report.
To arrive at this answer, you can refer to the given scenario and apply some basic understanding of the UCR (Uniform Crime Reporting) regulations. The UCR is a system used by law enforcement agencies to track and report crime statistics. In this case, the police officer took an official report of a crime that was later found to not have occurred. According to UCR regulations, such a situation would classify the report as a false report. This means that the crime was not real, but it was reported as if it had occurred.
For the second question, it seems that none of the provided options accurately describe the measurement method. However, based on the concept described in the question, the correct answer could be D) cohort analysis.
Cohort analysis refers to tracking a specific group of individuals or elements over time. In this case, the question asks about tracking a specific person through the entire criminal justice system. By doing so, you can obtain comprehensive information on that individual's experiences within the system, including arrests, trial proceedings, and outcomes. This type of analysis allows for a more in-depth understanding of how the criminal justice system operates and affects individuals.
It's important to note that none of the options given in the question match this description perfectly. However, based on the provided choices, D) cohort analysis is the most fitting option.
