Does self-identity matter? the mediating role of deviant self-identity between informal labeling and adolescent deviance
Although labeling theory has regained prominence in recent years, empirical research on the role of informal labeling in adolescent deviance remains limited, particularly regarding the psychological mechanisms linking social reactions to behavioral outcomes. This study investigates the mediating role of deviant self-identity in the relationship between informal labeling by others and adolescent deviant behavior. Using three waves of longitudinal …
The Impact of Ineffective Parenting Practices on Cyber-Deviance in South Korean Adolescents
To examine the applicability of general strain theory (GST) for adolescent cyber deviance, this study examined how ineffective parenting practices affect adolescent cyber deviance, focusing on the mediating role of negative emotions. Using a South nationally representative and longitudinal Korean adolescent sample ( n = 2,145), the current study employs Generalized Structural Equation Modeling (GSEM) to investigate the mediating role of depressio…
Incorporating Family, Individual, and Environmental Domains in Adolescent Deviance
This study investigates how low parental supervision, unstructured socializing, and low self-control intersect to shape adolescent deviance. Using data from 10,038 South Korean adolescents who participated in the Korean Crime Victim Survey and analyzing these data with negative binomial regression models, this study finds that low parental supervision, unstructured socializing, and low self-control are each significantly and positively associated…
Deterrent Impact of Penal Policies on Telecom-Fraud in China
Telecom-fraud has grown rapidly in China, prompting concerns about the effectiveness of punitive policies. Drawing on deterrence theory, this study examines how legally prescribed aggravating factors shape subsequent fraud trends. Using 108,478 cases from 2014 to 2021 and coding aggravators specified in the 2011, 2016, and 2021 judicial interpretations, we analyze spatial patterns and estimate longitudinal Poisson models for completed and attempt…
School Adjustment Problems and Early Adolescent Violence
This study investigates the developmental mechanisms linking school adjustment problems to early violent behavior, focusing on the mediating role of deviant peer association and the moderating effect of low self-control. Drawing on a nationally representative longitudinal sample of South Korean children (n = 2,545), this study tests a moderated mediation model during late childhood, a critical period for shaping behavioral trajectories. Findings …

Bad Friends Make Bad Boys? The Mediating Effects of Gender-Role Stereotypes on the Relationship Between Delinquent Peer Association and Violent Behavior Adolescents Boys
Although the link between delinquent peer association and violent behavior in adolescent boys is well documented, the underlying mechanisms are less explored. To address this gap, this study examines the mediating role of gender-role stereotypes in the relationship between delinquent peer association and violent behavior. Structural equation modeling was conducted using a longitudinal, nationally representative sample of South Korean adolescents …
When Opportunity Knocks
Although scholarly interest in morality and situational factors in juvenile offending has grown, few studies have examined their interactive effects on serious offenses. This study addresses that gap by investigating how a risky lifestyle moderates the relationship between moral deficiency and serious juvenile offending. The findings show that both moral deficiency and risky lifestyle independently increase the likelihood of serious offending. Ad…
Aggression as a Mediator Between Ineffective Parenting Practices and Adolescent Deviant Behaviors
The Effect of Parental Abuse and Negative School Experiences on Female Adolescent’s Substance Use
Consistent with the theoretical propositions of general strain theory (GST), abuse from parents and negative school experiences have been demonstrated as primary strain sources of female adolescents, which make them engage in delinquency to cope with their strains and negative emotions. However, limited research has examined the pathway of these relationships by considering the mediating role of depression as predicted from the GST perspective. T…
Child maltreatment, low self-control, and delinquent behaviour of early-aged adolescents
Until now, there has been limited research on the specific relationship between exposure to child maltreatment, the development of low self-control and subsequent delinquency among non-western samples from a general theory of crime perspective. To address this research gap, this study explores the role of low self-control as a mediator between exposure to child maltreatment and delinquent behaviour of South Korean children. By using longitudinal …
A Critical Multicultural Analysis of Underrepresented Figures in Contemporary STEM Picture-Book Biographies for Children (2020–2022)
Strains, Negative Emotions, Propensity for Criminal Coping, and Delinquency
General strain theory (GST) maintains that the likelihood of individuals engaging in deviant behaviors as a coping mechanism for negative emotions is conditioned by one's propensity for criminal coping. However, only a few previous studies, which suffered from limitations in measuring the propensity for criminal coping, have examined the conditioning proposition on this propensity within the framework of the GST. To address this research gap, usi…
Examining the Validity of Adaptive Comparative Judgment for Peer Evaluation in a Design Thinking Course
Adaptive comparative judgment (ACJ) is a holistic judgment approach used to evaluate the quality of something (e.g., student work) in which individuals are presented with pairs of work and select the better item from each pair. This approach has demonstrated high levels of reliability with less bias than other approaches, hence providing accurate values in summative and formative assessment in educational settings. Though ACJ itself has demonstra…
