CJ 340 Module Three Practice Activity Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
In this practice activity, you will identify key points of strain and cultural deviance theories. You will then identify a program or policy that was created in response to each type of theory and explain how that program or policy attempts to reduce crime.
Prompt
As you’ve learned in this module, there are three categories of sociological theories of criminal behavior. These theories all seek to explain criminal behavior as a response to social forces. Two of the sociological theories, strain theory and cultural deviance theory, were formulated in the early part of the 20th century, yet remain significant in the field of criminology today.
Using the provided template, identify 2 to 4 key points for each of the six theories listed (Durkheim’s Anomie Theory, Merton’s Strain Theory, Agnew’s General Strain Theory, Social Disorganization Theory, Differential Association Theory, and Culture Conflict Theory). Next, identify a policy or program that was created to reduce crime in response to a strain theory, and one created in response to a cultural deviance theory. Then, in 25 to 50 words for each, describe how that policy or program attempts to reduce crime.
Specifically, the following rubric criteria must be addressed:
- Identify 2 to 4 key points for each of the six theories listed in the template.
- Identify a policy or program that was created to reduce crime in response to a strain theory.
- Describe how the identified policy or program in relation to a strain theory attempts to reduce crime.
- Identify a policy or program that was created to reduce crime in response to a cultural deviance theory.
- Describe how the identified policy or program in relation to a cultural deviance theory attempts to reduce crime.
What to Submit
This assignment must be completed using the Module Three Practice Activity Template Word Document. Any references should be cited in APA style. Consult the Shapiro Library APA Style Guide for more information on citations.
