Gender and Imprisonment Decisions
Guidelines sentencing data from Pennsylvania for the years 1985–1987 are analyzed to assess the influence of gender on judges' imprisonment decisions. These data provide detailed information on offense severity and prior record, permit statistical controls for other variables thought to affect imprisonment decisions, cover a fairly comprehensive list of common‐law offenses (with adequate sample size), and contain judges' dispositional‐departure r…

Cohort Size and Arrest Rates Over the Life Course: The Easterlin Hypothesis Reconsidered
Easterlin's cohort-size hypothesis suggests that crime rates fluctuate according to the relative size of the birth cohort. We examine the hypothesis using arrest statistics from the Uniform Crime Reports for the years 1953 through 1989. This paper extends an earlier ASR article (Steffensmeier et al. 1987) and tests three hypotheses derived from the Easterlin framework: (1) whether cohort size is positively related to age-period-specific crime rat…

Development and Female Crime: A Cross-National Test of Alternative Explanations
In this report, we use INTERPOL data from 69 countries to test four alternative explanations of the relation between development and the female percentage of arrests (FP/A): gender equality, female economic marginality, opportunities for female-based consumer crimes, and formalization of social control. An analysis of both the direct and indirect effects of development was conducted to determine whether any or all of the alternative factors are m…
Age and the Distribution of Crime
This paper examines the age/crime distribution to determine whether there is a single pattern that is constant over time and across crime categories. Using arrest data of the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports for the periods of 1940, 1960, and 1980, the article compares parameters including age of maximum criminality, overall shape of the age-crime curve, and rate of decline from the peak age. Not only is there variation by crime type when the age-crim…
Relative Cohort Size and Youth Crime in the United States, 1953-1984
This paper tests the cohort size hypothesis that crime rates fluctuate according to the relative size of the age (birth) cohort. The hypothesis is tested using arrest statistics of the Uniform Crime Reports for the years 1953-84. Statistics on the Index Crime rate and on the individual index crimes are included in the analysis. The age-period-cohort analysis reveals large age and period effects but small cohort effects. The statistical tests demo…
