ThresholdBrain injury and justice Stan Gilmour and Huw Williams

Evidence base

Brain injury and justice, across three decades. Every record was located in a bibliographic database or on the issuing body's own site, and many went through an adversarial verification pass. Findings are recorded as the source states them, and each older work carries what it did for the field and where its claim stands today.

The research journey, by year of publication

The three epochs. 1996 to 2005 established the question, 2006 to 2015 established the prevalence, and 2016 to 2026 has tested the causal claim. Works in the two earlier epochs carry four extra fields: what the work did for the field at the time, where its claim stands today, a lineage link where a later study replaced it, and the role it played. A work marked as still holding has survived later and better designs; one marked refined was broadly right and has been superseded in precision; one marked contested is disputed now. Lineage links run between works where a later study superseded, replicated or overturned an earlier one, and only where that link was confirmed.

Reading the record. Tier one marks work the field treats as landmark or definitive; tier two is solid contributory evidence; tier three is context and commentary. Foundational covers 1988 to 2015, core covers 2016 to 2026. A contested flag means the finding is actively disputed in the literature, and the dispute is named in the record.

Strands. A adult custody prevalence. B children and young people. C women and girls. D screening and identification. E trajectories and recidivism. F custody and supervision. G courts and rights. H interventions. I intimate partner violence and strangulation. J sport, military and occupational. K policy and guidance. L data, linkage and burden. M lived experience. Some works appear in more than one strand.

Status. Working corpus, September 2026. Compiled for the Threshold baseline by Oxon Advisory. A small number of records could not be independently confirmed and are marked in place. Verify any citation against the source before publication.
