Most social process perspectives do not limit focus to any segment of the class structure. Social process theories most commonly attempt to explain how individuals become law...
This model approximated traditional risk factor theories of gun violence.

The exponential random graph (ERGM) model is a commonly used statistical framework for studying the determinants of tie formations from social network data. To test scientific theories under ERGMs, statistical inferential techniques are...
crime versatility, and therefore we employ Relational Hyperevent Models (RHEM) to model the conditional probability that a given group of co-offenders engages in one set of crime categories rather than another. Thus, we are analyzing a two-mode network (actors by crime categories) and explain,...
in the effort to understand and solve various social problems (education, crime, poverty, pestilence), the pioneers of the social sciences developed the theories, concepts, and methods that came eventually to comprise the basic disciplines.

envision the appropriate behavior in a cross-cultural interaction (Black and Mendenhall, 1990). The role of toughness in relation to SLT needs further study, but holds much promise. While cross-cultural scholars have started to integrate theories, there is still more work to be done (Landis, ...
