Bullying Victimization and Cyber Delinquency Among Adolescents From Multicultural Families in South Korea
This study examines whether verbal bullying victimization is prospectively associated with cyber delinquency among adolescents from multicultural families in South Korea, focusing on negative emotional mediation and cumulative exposure. Drawing on General Strain Theory, we analyze five waves of nationally representative longitudinal panel data from the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study ( N = 2,074, 2019–2023). Verbal bullying victimization wa…
Strain and Adolescent Delinquency From a Life-Course Perspective
Although General Strain Theory (GST) has been widely used to explain delinquent behavior, few studies have examined whether the sources and effects of strain differ across developmental stages. Drawing on GST, this study investigates developmental differences in how various stressors influence delinquent behavior using two waves of nationally representative panel data from South Korea. Regression and decomposition analyses compare adolescence and…
The problem of contingent existence
The problem of contingent existence is the problem of how an individual's nonexistence such as Socrates's nonexistence is possible within the framework of possible worlds, or, equivalently, how a negative existential proposition about Socrates can be true at some world. This paper is concerned with Robert Adams's celebrated solution that distinguishes two modes of truth at a world: inner and outer. Adams argues that Socrates's nonexistence is not…
A Comprehensive Examination on Police Use of Force From Individual, Situational, and Structural Perspectives
Police use of force continues to be a topic of much discussion in the community, media, and academia. Officer and citizen characteristics are commonly examined in use of force incidents; however, the impact of neighborhoods and structural factors are understudied. Using 7,858 use of force incidents reported by the Dallas Police Department from 2014 to 2016, this study examines the effects of individual, situational, and structural factors on use …
Low Self-Control and Delinquent Behavior Among Caribbean Youths
Delinquent behavior represents a serious concern in the Caribbean. In order to provide insights useful for explaining deviant behavior among youths in Caribbean countries, this study examines the importance of self-control and parental supervision as predictors of deviant behavior. The study assesses direct as well as interaction effects of both variables. For the study, data from Guyana, St. Kitts and Nevis and St. Lucia were analyzed. The sampl…
From Domestic Violence to Juvenile Delinquency
Although family violence increases juvenile delinquency, few studies have assessed whether its effects differ by gender in cultures emphasizing family hierarchy and gendered expectations. This study examines how interparental violence and parental abuse relate to delinquency using nationally representative longitudinal data from South Korea. Mixed effects Poisson regression results show that both forms of violence significantly predict increased …
The Relationship Between Academic Performance and Delinquent Behavior
While many studies suggest that poor academic performance predicts delinquency, others have argued that the relationship between academic performance and delinquency can be marginal, null, or even spurious. This study examines the relationship between academic performance and delinquent behavior among Korean youth within the general strain framework, utilizing data from the Korean Child and Youth Panel Survey. Using a sample of 2,378 students fro…

Why Americans Support Strict Counterterrorism Measures
After 9/11, contemporary debates on security often place civil liberties and security at opposite ends of the same spectrum, requiring the loss of one for the maintenance of the other. In addition, public concerns about terrorism determine or at least color public perception about government counterterrorism activities. Thus, the current study empirically examines factors influencing the public’s perception of government activities that may infri…
Adverse Consequences of Crime Victimization for School-Aged Girls in South Korea
Crime victimization is one of the most stressful negative events and brings numerous adverse outcomes to victims. Victims suffer from physical damage, property loss, psychological trauma, and behavioral problems. Many studies have examined these adverse consequences of crime victimization, but a comprehensive approach for victims who are school-aged girls has been relatively under-documented. To fill the gap in the literature, this study analyzes…

Anti-Asian American Hate Crimes Spike During the Early Stages of the Covid-19 Pandemic
The recent high-profile cases of hate crimes in the U.S., especially those targeting Asian Americans, have raised concerns about their risk of victimization. Following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, intimations—and even accusations—that the novel coronavirus is an “Asian” or “Chinese” virus have been linked to anti-Asian American hate crime, potentially leaving members of this group not only fearful of being victimized but also at risk for v…
Which Risk Factors Plays the Most Critical Role for Delinquent Behavior? Examining Integrated Cognitive Antisocial Potential Theory
Some developmental criminologists have focused on the influence of risk factors in an early stage of one’s life to explain criminal behavior and provide catered intervention. However, relatively less attention has been made to situational risk factors in developmental criminology. Recently, the Integrated Cognitive Antisocial Potential theory (ICAP) argued that both long-term antisocial potential and short-term situational factors influence one’s…
Intimate Partner Violence and Suicidality
Suicide among women is a growing problem in Trinidad and Tobago. Despite efforts to reduce suicide, the etiology of suicidal behaviors in this region has rarely been examined. Using the National Women's Health Survey for Trinidad and Tobago in 2018 ( n = 1,079), this study examined the causes of suicidality through concepts contained in Agnew's general strain theory, such as negative stimuli (i.e., intimate partner violence [IPV]) and negative em…

Is It Dangerous to Live in Neighborhoods with More Immigrants? Assessing the Effects of Immigrant Concentration on Crime Patterns
The immigration-crime nexus has been the subject of much empirical attention and research findings consistently indicate that neighborhoods with large immigrant populations exhibit comparatively lower crime rates. However, it is still imperative to explain how these effects take place in different contexts of structural circumstances of communities. This study aims to examine the effects of immigrant concentration as well as its conditioning effe…
Factors that influence trust in the police in Mexico
Despite Mexico’s justice reform, most Mexican citizens do not trust in their criminal justice system. Particularly, public dissatisfaction with the police has not been solved in Mexico. Researchers have examined citizens’ trust in the police to improve public-police relationship in Mexico. Relatively less attention, however, has been made to the theoretical framework, which explores factors such as instrumental and expressive factors that influen…
The Effects of School Police Officers on Victimization, Delinquency, and Fear of Crime
As a response to rising concerns about school violence, the Korean National Police Agency began recruiting specialized police officers, called Korean School Police Officers (KSPOs), in hopes that they would reduce in school behavioral and delinquency problems. The current study provides insight into the effects of crime prevention activities in Korean schools, using the 2014 Korean Youth Victimization Survey to advance the knowledge about the rol…
