USING THE CORRECT STATISTICAL TEST FOR THE EQUALITY OF REGRESSION COEFFICIENTS Tập 36 Số 4 - Trang 859-866 - 1998
Raymond Paternoster, Robert Apel, Paul Mazerolle, Alex R. Piquero
Criminologists are often interested in examining interactive effects within a regression context. For example, “holding other relevant factors constant, is the effect of delinquent peers on one's own delinquent conduct the same for males and females?” or “is the effect of a given treatment program comparable between first‐time and repeat offenders?” A frequent strategy in examining such in...... hiện toàn bộ
THE NEW PENOLOGY: NOTES ON THE EMERGING STRATEGY OF CORRECTIONS AND ITS IMPLICATIONS* Tập 30 Số 4 - Trang 449-474 - 1992
Malcolm M Feeley, Jonathan Simon
The new penology argues that an important new language of penology is emerging. This new language, which has its counterparts in other areas of the law as well, shifts focus away from the traditional concerns of the criminal law and criminology, which have focused on the individual, and redirects it to actuarial consideration of aggregates. This shi...... hiện toàn bộ
DOES CORRECTIONAL TREATMENT WORK? A CLINICALLY RELEVANT AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY INFORMED META‐ANALYSIS * Tập 28 Số 3 - Trang 369-404 - 1990
Stephen D. Hart, Ivan Zinger, Robert D. Hoge, James Bonta, Paul Gendreau, Francis T. Cullen
Careful reading of the literature on the psychology of criminal conduct and of prior reviews of studies of treatment effects suggests that neither criminal sanctioning without provision of rehabilitative service nor servicing without reference to clinical principles of rehabilitation will succeed in reducing recidivism. What works, in our view, is the delivery of appropriate correctional s...... hiện toàn bộ
HOT SPOTS OF PREDATORY CRIME: ROUTINE ACTIVITIES AND THE CRIMINOLOGY OF PLACE* Tập 27 Số 1 - Trang 27-56 - 1989
Lawrence W. Sherman, Patrick R. Gartin, Michael E. Buerger
A leading sociological theory of crime is the “routine activities” approach (Cohen and Felson, 1979). The premise of this ecological theory is that criminal events result from likely offenders, suitable targets, and the absence of capable guardians against crime converging nonrandomly in time and space. Yet prior research has been unable to employ spatial data, relying instead on individua...... hiện toàn bộ
SOCIAL DISORGANIZATION AND THEORIES OF CRIME AND DELINQUENCY: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS* Tập 26 Số 4 - Trang 519-552 - 1988
Robert J. Bursik
After a period of decline in the discipline, the social disorganization model of Shaw and McKay is again beginning to appear in the literature. This paper examines five criticisms of the perspective and discusses recent attempts to address those issues and problems that are still in need of resolution.
THE LINK BETWEEN OFFENDING AND VICTIMIZATION AMONG ADOLESCENTS* Tập 29 Số 2 - Trang 265-292 - 1991
Janet L. Lauritsen, Robert J. Sampson, John H. Laub
Prior research on victimization in the United States has generally neglected two key areas—victimization among juveniles and young adults and the connection between offending and victimization. The research presented here fuses these two concerns by examining the effect of delinquent lifestyles on the criminal victimization of teenagers and young adults. An examination of longitudinal data...... hiện toàn bộ
GANGS, DRUGS, AND DELINQUENCY IN A SURVEY OF URBAN YOUTH* Tập 31 Số 4 - Trang 565-589 - 1993
Finn‐Aage Esbensen, David Huizinga
Youth delinquent gangs have been given considerable academic and media attention during the past decade. Much of the attention has focused on the violence and drug dealing in which gang members are assumed to be involved. Recent knowledge about gangs has relied primarily on data obtained from police gang units and from observational or case studies. Very little information has been derived...... hiện toàn bộ
RACIAL TYPIFICATION OF CRIME AND SUPPORT FOR PUNITIVE MEASURES Tập 42 Số 2 - Trang 358-390 - 2004
Ted Chiricos, Kelly Welch, Marc Gertz
This paper assesses whether support for harsh punitive policies toward crime is related to the racial typification of crime for a national random sample of households (N=885), surveyed in 2002. Results from OLS regression show that the racial typification of crime is a significant predictor of punitiveness, independent of the influence of racial prejudice, conservatism, crime salience, sou...... hiện toàn bộ
SCHOOL BONDING, RACE, AND DELINQUENCY* Tập 30 Số 2 - Trang 261-291 - 1992
Stephen A. Cernkovich, Peggy C. Giordano
While there is considerable evidence that blacks experience school in qualitatively distinct ways from whites, there has been a general failure to examine racial variation in the impact of school variables on juvenile misconduct. The purpose of this research is to describe the manner in which school bonding affects delinquent conduct, focusing in particular on the role of the school in the...... hiện toàn bộ
NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS PREDICTING PERSISTENT MALE DELINQUENCY* Tập 32 Số 2 - Trang 277-300 - 1994
Terrie E. Moffitt, Donald R. Lynam, Phil A. Silva
This article reports the first longitudinal evidence that prospective measures of neuropsychological status predict antisocial outcomes. We studied data for a birth cohort of several hundred New Zealand males from age 13 to age 18. Age‐13 neuropsychological scores predicted later delinquency measured via multiple sources: police, courts, and self‐report. Poor neuropsychological scores were...... hiện toàn bộ
