过去的研究评估了由于不同的社会控制而导致的犯罪行为的性别差异,但关于性别和社会纽带的重要问题仍然存在。由于这项工作的大部分前提是赫希对社会纽带的测量,我们考察了性别是否调节了社会纽带的两个部分:社会纽带的测量以及社会纽带和犯罪之间的结构性差异。使用多组结构方程模型,我们发现,社会纽带的测量及其与财产犯罪的关系都不是性别特有的。男孩和女孩之间的社会纽带因素和暴力犯罪之间的结构关系略有不同。我们讨论了这项研究对社会控制理论的影响,测量了社会纽带,并讨论了社会纽带和控制的性别特定理论。(C)2004 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
Past research has assessed gender differences in delinquency due to differential social controls, yet important questions remain regarding gender and social bonding. As much of this work was premised on Hirschi's measurement of the social bond, we examine whether gender moderates two parts of the social bond: the measurement of the social bond and structural differences between the social bond and delinquency. Using multiple-group structural equation modeling, we find that neither the measures of the social bond nor their relationships with property crime are gender-specific. The structural relationship between the elements of the social bond and violent delinquency differs slightly for boys and girls. We discuss implications of this research for social control theory, measuring the social bond and for gender-specific theories of social bonding and control. (c) 2004 Elsevier Inc.
