She also explores the moderating effect of collective efficacy on the relationship between locus of control and crime. Findings suggest that increased locus of control inhibits criminal activity among youth, while collective efficacy does not influence individual-level criminal behavior. However, collective efficacy completely moderates the relationship between locus of control and crime; nullifyCriminal Justice: Recent ScholarshipJuvenile delinquencyIllinoisChicagoLocus of controlIllinoisChicagoNeighborhoodsIllinoisChicagoSocial controlIllinoisChicagoJuvenile delinquencyLocus of controlElectronic books.Juvenile delinquencyLocus of controlNeighborhoodsSocial controlJuvenile delinquency.Locus of control.364.3609773/11Ahlin Eileen912481MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462676003321Youth involvement in crime2043742UNINA
