The Prevention of Youthful Crime: The Great Stumble Forward
Attitudes Toward Delinquency by Court Officials: Comparisons Between North America and Europe
When attitude questionnaires are translated from one language to another it is difficult to interpret responses for the purpose of cross cultural comparisons. This study attempts to compare attitudes of juvenile court officials in Vienna and Boston by rank ordering equivalent roles along various attitudinal dimensions. In Vienna, judges, police, state attorneys, and lay judges usually have a more "conservative" outlook than probation officers and…

Work and Teaching Machines as Delinquency Prevention Tools: A Four-Year Follow-Up
Carefully evaluated delinquency prevention programs have had little impact on their subjects, at least in terms of deterring official delinquency. Few projects meet the requirements of a controlled experiment, and fewer still have a follow-up to assess the long-term impact. This paper presents an analysis of the long-term impact of the Opportunities for Youth Project, which utilized two experimental variables: (1) a supervised work program and (2…

The Silver Lake Experiment: Testing Delinquency Theory and Community Intervention
Present Conduct and Future Delinquency
A Developmental Theory of Delinquency
On a avance l'hypothese que la delinquence etait le produit de l'interiorisation de normes qui allaient a l'encontre des normes de la societe majoritaire. Pour notre part, nous estimons que les normes delinquentes sont un consequent plutot qu'un antecedent de l'interaction sociale. Cette explication pretend que les enfants qui jouissent d'un statut social inferieur se comporteront d'une maniere previsible. Les attentes des adultes sont correcteme…
Testing a Causal Model of Delinquency
The purpose of this paper is to bridge the present gap between ideas and the testing of them, rather than offering original explanations of delinquency or suggesting more sophisticated techniques for handling data. The material presented here empirically testing some causal propositions about the etiology of delinquency is a different approach from the traditional correlational study with its cautions about deducing causation. Because of their ut…
Systematic Bias in Measuring Self‐Reported Delinquency
Les auteurs suggerent que la relation entre 1'evaluation personnelle de la delinquance et d'autres indicateurs de la delinquance est affaiblie par la tendance qu'a le petit contingent des plus delinquants a rapporter moins d'actes delinquants qu'ils en ont commis. Au sujet de cette tendance a I'omission volontaire, on a enonce les hypotheses qu'elle serait plus accentuee (1) chez les adolescents noirs que chez les Blancs, (2) chez les adolescents…
Delinquency and Crime: Cross-Cultural Perspectives
Predictors of Deviant Behaviour: Norms vs. The Perceived Anticipations of Others
Dans plusieurs schémes de prévention du comportement délinquant, on postule que l'on changera la conduite des jeunes gens en transformant les valeurs partagées par ceux‐ci dans les régions urbaines criminogénes. Si les valeurs sont le produit de l'interaction, plutôt qu'une cause du caractére de celle‐ci, et si elles se cristallisent sous l'effet du comportement, les tentatives faites pour modifier les valeurs peuvent s'avérer une méthode ineffic…
Criminal Behavior Systems: A Typology
The Integration of a Lower-Class Culture: Some Social Implications of a Rigid Class Structure
IN ONE OF the fairly recent studies of delinquency, Albert Cohen suggests that delinquent gangs may be a means of meeting the frustration caused by constant failure in the dominant society. While the juvenile delinquent cannot meet certain standards, he does not accept his failure passively; instead he inverts these standards so that he and other members of his peer group facing the same situation can succeed. Instead of respecting private proper…
