THE IMPACT OF ECONOMIC CONDITIONS ON ROBBERY AND PROPERTY CRIME: THE ROLE OF CONSUMER SENTIMENT*
Criminology - Tập 45 Số 4 - Trang 735-769 - 2007
Richard Rosenfeld, Robert Fornango
Despite its long history in criminology, research on the relationship between macroeconomic conditions and rates of common crime remains limited. That is in part because many analysts doubt that any systematic relationship exists and in part because of disagreement with regard to the validity of the indicators typically used to measure economic conditions. We argue in this article that good theore... hiện toàn bộ
WHY IS INVOLVEMENT IN UNSTRUCTURED SOCIALIZING RELATED TO ADOLESCENT DELINQUENCY?*
Criminology - Tập 54 Số 2 - Trang 242-281 - 2016
Evelien M. Hoeben, Frank M. Weerman
The relationship between unstructured socializing (peer‐oriented activity without supervision) and adolescent delinquency is widely established and recognized, but less is known about why this relationship exists. The present study integrates the unstructured socializing perspective with insights from social learning theory and other theoretical perspectives on peer influence and empirically inves... hiện toàn bộ
A DUAL‐SYSTEMS APPROACH FOR UNDERSTANDING DIFFERENTIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY TO PROCESSES OF PEER INFLUENCE
Criminology - Tập 51 Số 2 - Trang 435-474 - 2013
Kyle J. Thomas, Jean Marie McGloin
The distinct peer‐based perspectives of deviant normative influence and unstructured/unsupervised socializing with friends contend that adolescents rely on different information when deciding to offend, with the former positing that individuals offend after considering the longer term consequences of behavior, and the latter positing that decisions to offend derive from situational stimuli. We arg... hiện toàn bộ
ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOR AND YOUTH GANG MEMBERSHIP: SELECTION AND SOCIALIZATION
Criminology - Tập 42 Số 1 - Trang 55-88 - 2004
Rachel A. Gordon, Benjamin B. Lahey, ERIKO KAWAI, Rolf Loeber, Magda Stouthamer‐Loeber, David P. Farrington
We examine whether gang membership is associated with higher levels of delinquency because boys predisposed to delinquent activity are more likely than others to join. We use 10 years of longitudinal data from 858 participants of the Pittsburgh Youth Study to identify periods before, during and after gang membership. We build on prior research by controlling for ages and calendar time, by better a... hiện toàn bộ
“I GOT YOUR BACK”: AN EXAMINATION OF THE PROTECTIVE FUNCTION OF GANG MEMBERSHIP IN ADOLESCENCE*
Criminology - Tập 47 Số 2 - Trang 565-594 - 2009
Chris Melde, Terrance J. Taylor, Finn‐Aage Esbensen
The threat of victimization has been regarded as a central feature in both the development and the continuation of youth gangs. Although many studies find the need for protection to be a common reason youth join gangs, recent literature suggests that gang members are at an increased risk of victimization. Given this seeming contradiction between expectations and reality, the current article examin... hiện toàn bộ
HOT SPOTS OF PREDATORY CRIME: ROUTINE ACTIVITIES AND THE CRIMINOLOGY OF PLACE*
Criminology - 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 individual‐ and h... hiện toàn bộ
SELF‐REPORTED GANG INVOLVEMENT AND OFFICIALLY RECORDED DELINQUENCY*
Criminology - Tập 38 Số 4 - Trang 1253-1274 - 2000
G. David Curry
Field studies and survey research have sometimes been critical of the utility of law enforcement data on gang activity. Survey information on gang involvement in early adolescence is linked to delinquent offending as recorded by the Chicago Police Department over a five‐year period. Self‐reported gang involvement is found to be a significant correlate of the probability of officially recorded deli... hiện toàn bộ
EFFECTS OF ATTRACTIVENESS, OPPORTUNITY AND ACCESSIBILITY TO BURGLARS ON RESIDENTIAL BURGLARY RATES OF URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS
Criminology - Tập 41 Số 3 - Trang 981-1002 - 2003
Wim Bernasco, FLOOR LUYKX
This study assesses the effects of attractiveness, opportunity and accessibility to burglars on the residential burglary rates of urban neighborhoods, combining two complementary lines of investigation that have been following separate tracks in the literature. As a complement to standard measures of attractiveness and opportunity, we introduce and specify a spatial measure of the accessibility of... hiện toàn bộ
THE LINK BETWEEN OFFENDING AND VICTIMIZATION AMONG ADOLESCENTS*
Criminology - 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 from th... hiện toàn bộ
THE LOGIC OF DEFINITION IN CRIMINOLOGY: PURPOSES AND METHODS FOR DEFINING “GANGS”
Criminology - Tập 33 Số 2 - Trang 225-245 - 1995
Richard A. Ball, G. David Curry
This article is aimed at clarifying some of the problems in gang definition by examination of the logic of definition. Definitions are considered in terms of various purposes as well as lexical and stipulative definitional types. Methods of stipulative definition that have been tangled together in gang research and theory are identified as analytic definition and synthetic definition, with the lat... hiện toàn bộ
