I’m working on a criminal justice writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

The theory I chose relating to criminal justice is behavior theory. Which is how a crime is learned through societal values of reward vs punishment. Hypothesis My  is that the more a child is around someone that does crime, the more likely they will do crime. The way I would test my hypothesis would see if I put a child in a environment that only does crime, how they would turn out. Put another child in an environment that has no crime and see the difference. My dependent variable would be that the more people they are involved with that does crime, they will also do it.  My questions would be:

How does this problem typically make you feel 

your age 

what race 

what gender 

what’s the highest degree they have 

what age group do they associate with 

how were they treated as kids 

how was they reward as kids
