Delinquency, Identity, and Women's Involvement in Relationship Violence
This study focuses on factors associated with women's self‐reports of relationship violence “perpetration.” We analyzed data derived from personal interviews with 942 respondents who were originally contacted when they were adolescents and then 10 years later as young adults (N=721). Level of delinquency in adolescence was a signicant predictor of adult reports of involvement in relationship violence, for both male and female respondents. In addi…
The Quality of Adolescent Friendships
While differing in etiological emphasis, a variety of theoretical perspectives seem to coalesce around the notion that youthful friendships are "good" for development. Sociometric studies have documented that low status youth are at risk for a variety of negative outcomes, but there has been little longitudinal research focused on the qualities of youths' relations with peers. We conducted interviews focusing on adolescents' relations with their …
Attitudes toward Childbearing among Young Parents
H. Theodore Groat, Peggy C. Giordano, Stephen A. Cernkovich, M. D. Pugh, Steven P. Swinford, Attitudes toward Childbearing among Young Parents, Journal of Marriage and Family, Vol. 59, No. 3 (Aug., 1997), pp. 568-581
Poverty, Income Inequality, and Violent Crime
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, several important reviews of the literature failed to establish a clear consensus on the relationship between economic conditions and violent crime. The research presented here applies the procedures of meta-analysis to 34 aggregate data studies reporting on violent crime, poverty, and income inequality. These studies reported a total of 76 zero-order correlation coefficients for all measures of violent crime wi…
Delinquency as a Risk Factor in Teenage Pregnancy
Drawing upon longitudinal data collected from the same boys and girls in their early (13–14) and later (18–19) years of adolescence, this research models age at sexual debut, contraceptive risk-taking, and teenage pregnancy on the basis of family background and delinquency involvement during the early years of adolescence. The data also allow for control over the influence of social class while studying the effects of race, and vice-versa. Regres…
Friendships and Delinquency
Major delinquency theories differ significantly in the ways in which they have portrayed the friendship patterns of male and, more recently, female delinquents. Psychological studies and control theory have depicted delinquents' peer relationships as inadequate or exploitive and cold, whereas subcultural theories generally emphasize the intimacy and solidarity of the delinquent gang. In spite of its pivotal theoretical role, few studies have actu…
Contributory Fault and Rape Convictions
The practice of revealing the past sexual conduct of rape victims in court trials was the issue which prompted this study. The primary objective was to model the effects ofjuror sex, victim stigma, and contributory fault on rape convictions using simulation data from 358 undergraduates. Contrary to certain previous studies, loglinear analysis indicates that information about a rape victim's past sexual conduct does affect perceptions of her moral…
Neutralizing Sexism in Mixed-Sex Groups
The first part of this study supports the contention that sex (gender) acts as a "diffuse status characteristics" in mixed-sex task groups and leads to the exertion of less influence by females than by males. The second part compares three techniques for changing expectations. Two of them, verbal statements of equality and a demonstration of equality on a related task, had no effect in the experiment conducted. The third, however, a demonstration…

Attitudes of Catholic and Protestant Clergy toward Euthanasia
The findings of this study do not categorically confirm the popular assumption that the clergymen are opposed to euthanasia because of the sanctity with which they regard human life. Although they find active euthanasia highly unacceptable, they view passive euthanasia more favorably. However, Catholic clergymen more than Protestant, are significantly opposed to both forms of euthanasia. From the response patterns, a Guttman Scale with a high coe…
Statistical Assumptions and Social Reality
The statistical assumptions of asymmetry and linearity in path models of academic achievement are critically examined using data from a sample of Connecticut high school seniors. Analysis suggests that student self-evaluations of academic capability and school performance may be reciprocally related and that academic achievement may be more resistant to change among poor than among average students. Both findings would be masked in simple recursi…
Competence and Conformity
Faculty Support of Student Dissent
This paper replicates an earlier study of faculty status and tolerance of political dissent by Abramson and Wences. The data support the hypothesis that length of residence on a university campus is inversely related to faculty tolerance of student dissent. The expected relationship between academic rank and tolerance was eliminated by controlling for longevity, but the predicted relationship between academic field and tolerance was unaffected. T…
