Camilla Bank Friis focuses on sociological explanations of conflicts and the violence that arises in frontline contexts. Her research is centered on understanding violence and aggression directed towards personnel, operating within a microsociological framework. Friis employs an interactional approach to develop sociological theory concerning status, group dynamics, motivation, and emotions. Methodologically, her work spans a broad spectrum of techniques, holding particular expertise in the analysis of video data from body-worn and surveillance cameras, enabling both qualitative and quantitative behavioral analysis. Her current project involves a field experiment in collaboration with colleagues, analyzing the impact of body-worn cameras on assaults against ticket inspectors in public transportation. The research is characterized by a combination of observational data and self-reported data, aiming to provide comprehensive insights into the social conditions surrounding violence in service environments.
