The ecology of classroom behavior
William W. Wattenberg Wayne State University Detroit, Michigan From the viewpoint of the practical educator, interest in classroom dynamics is based on the common-sense observation that certain types of pupil or student behaviors occur more frequently in some classes than they do in others. On the positive side, we are interested in raising achievement levels, bringing about greater cooperation, seeing more creativity develop, and enjoying the cl…

A Study of Teen-Agers Arrested for Drunkenness
Recidivism among girls
The records of 427 repeaters were compared with those of 655 non-repeaters. Of the items associated with repeating, the largest clusters relate to friction with parents and with schools. As compared to a similar study of boys, repeating among girls was linked to a more narrow range of factors. Girls more than boys were affected by present relationships within the home, particularly those involving their mothers. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006…

a conceptual scheme. The first is that it is not something which has been invented of the blue and thrust into our social science scene, but is very much a development out of the lines of theoretical thinking which have deep roots in both European and American tradition. Appreciation of just how the lines of influence operate cannot, however, be arrived at by superficial comparison of concepts and their definitions, but requires careful critical …
Automobile Theft: A 'Favored-Group' Delinquency
In contrast to other boys charged by Detroit police with misconduct, juveniles involved in automobile theft came in relatively higher proportion from good neighborhoods and favored ethic groups. They had good peer-group relationships but otherwise were similar to a cross-section of other juvenile offenders. What they shared with boys of lower socioeconomic status might be a personality structure which responded to the values of their primary grou…
Gang Membership and Juvenile Misconduct
T HERE has long been a fascination about those young people, mostly in their teens, who form groups which challenge society. Popular interest is evidenced by the avid consumption of highly dramatized articles on gang life and gang warfare. Scientifically, there is a puzzle to be solved: How can we account for those young people who prove able to make a seemingly fine social adjustment in groups of their peers but nevertheless get in trouble with …
Delinquency and only children: "Study of a "Category
A review of studies of delinquency reveals contradictory findings concerning the effects of being an only child. Generalizations usually overlook factors of age, broken home, socio-economic status, or selective criteria of delinquency. From the fairly detailed information available on 2000 juvenile offenders in Detroit, it appears that only children are only half as likely as non-only children to become offenders. Yet they are just as likely to b…
