Because different methods for studying criminal behavior all suffer from important limitations, it is useful to apply different methodologies to the same population whenever possible. In this analysis, we examine the relationships between self-report and official record-based measures of offending activity using populations of adolescent serious offenders in Phoenix, Arizona, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
由于研究犯罪行为的不同方法都存在重大局限性,因此只要有可能,对同一人群应用不同的方法是很有用的。在本分析中,我们使用亚利桑那州凤凰城和宾夕法尼亚州费城的青少年严重犯罪者群体,研究了自我报告和基于官方记录的犯罪活动衡量指标之间的关系。
