The purpose of this paper is for you to critically evaluate the criminological theory of your choice that we have covered in this course. A reference table of theories discussed in this course is given on the front cover and back pages of the Walsh & Jorgensen textbook.
Your paper should be 3-5 full double-spaced pages with 1-inch margins and 12 point Times New Roman font. It should include a cover page and reference list (not counted in the overall page total) and should be written following APA style guidelines. The content of your paper should address the following:
Introduce the theory and explain how it originated (including who developed it) and provide a summary of its major components.
Describe how the theory has been tested over time. This should include reference to at least two major research studies that support or refute the theory.
Apply the theory to a crime incident that has been in the news within the last 6 months. You will need to reference a news story about a crime (e.g., a mass shooting, a string of burglaries, an assault, etc.) and apply the theory to that incident. What can the theory tell us about why that crime occurred? What can?t the theory explain? Does the theory offer ways about how that crime could have been prevented (Explain)? Does that theory do a good job of predicting that particular crime (Explain)?
Papers are due via online submission to Blackboard.
