An Examination of Economic Strain, Negative Emotions, and Low Self-Control
Strain and low self-control theory are two prominent theories of crime. However, there has been little research comparing the two perspectives to examine their relationship to self-reported delinquency among institutionalized juveniles. We begin to address this gap in the literature by assessing the impacts of economic strain, negative emotions, and low self-control on the commission of property and violent crime using a near census of institutio…
Cracking the Code? Schools, Neighborhoods, Peers, Individual Propensity, and the Conditioning Effect of Race and Gender on Code of the Street Adherence
There is a growing body of literature concerning the development of code of the street values. However, several factors theorized to inform street code adherence have escaped examination.
