First Person Accounts and Sociological Explanations of Delinquency
Cinquante‐six garçons du secondaire ont expliqué pourquoi ils avaient perpétré ou non certains actes de délinquance (combat, vandalisme, vol à l'étalage, usage de drogues). Ils ont aussi ciblé des théories sociologiques de la délinquance qui s'appliquent à leur comportement. Leurs réponses montrent que les deux types de données se recoupent beaucoup. L'effort, la théorie gánérate, les pairs, le contrôle social, les techniques de neutralisation et…
Drinking and Driving, Self-Control, and Gender
Recently, Gottfredson and Hirschi proposed a general theory of crime. Central to the theory is the assumption that most criminal behavior is impulsive and reflects a lack of self-control. Thus criminals are seen as risk takers who are less restrained than noncriminals from illegal activities. In a secondary analysis of data from a roadside traffic survey, this study attempts to test Gottfredson and Hirschi's theory by examining the relationship b…
Socioeconomic Status is Significantly Related to
Different measures of socioeconomic status and different cutting points for each of the measures are examined. Both the strength of relationship with dependent variables and the statistical level of significance varies depending on the measure of socioeconomic status and the choice of cutting point. It is suggested that researchers report a range of statistical values in their analyses

It was predicted that as college students continue to break away from their parents and conform more to their peers, they will become more sexually permissive. The hypothesis is weakly supported. Further, it was predicted that the permissiveness of the peer reference group, in its norms and behavior, would be an even more important determinant of pre…
