Isi artikel

Do frequent, violent offenders possess the same characteristics as frequent, non violent offenders ? Although a few studies have examined this question, a few limitations reduce the generalizability of the findings. In an effort to overcome some of those limitations, this article uses data from the philadelphia collaborative perinatal project to examine two interrelated questions. First, do frequent, violent offenders possess the same characteristics as frequent, non violent offenders ? Second, is there specificity or generality in violence ? In general, the results suggest that frequent, violent offenders are indistinguishable from frequent, non violent offenders and that involvement in violence is primarily a function of increasing offense frequency : that is, there is no tendency to specialize in violence. Implications for future theoretical research are addressed.
