TLDR
Although the use of financial penalties is pervasive in the justice system, there has been limited (and mostly dated) empirical research that has investigated the effect of financial costs incurred as mentioned in this paper, which is the most relevant work to ours.

Sensory perception in autism

TL;DR: It is argued that sensory traits have important implications for the development of animal and computational models of the condition and how difficulties in sensory processing may relate to the other domains of behaviour that characterize autism.

Generalized Synthetic Control Method: Causal Inference with Interactive Fixed Effects Models

TL;DR: In this article, the synthetic control method is combined with linear fixed effect models under a simple framework, of which Difference-in-Differences (DID) is a special case, allowing the treatment to be correlated with unobserved unit and time heterogeneities under reasonable modelling assumptions.

Impaired perceptual learning in a mouse model of Fragile X syndrome is mediated by parvalbumin neuron dysfunction and is reversible.

TL;DR: Impaired visual discrimination in Fmr1–/– mice correlates with marked deficits in orientation tuning of principal neurons and with a decrease in the activity of parvalbumin interneurons in primary visual cortex, suggesting that manipulating inhibition may improve sensory processing in FXS.

Racial disparities in official assessments of juvenile offenders : Attributional stereotypes as mediating mechanisms

TL;DR: This paper examined the links among these factors, focusing specifically on the race of the accused and found that differential attributions about the causes of crime act as a mediating factor between race and sentencing recommendations.

New Evidence on the Monetary Value of Saving a High Risk Youth

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide estimates of the cost of crime imposed on society by high risk youth by using new estimates of individual crimes, ones that are more comprehensive and that significantly increased the monetary cost per crime, and also use new estimates on the underlying offending rate for high risk juvenile offenders.
