Criminal Behaviour - Applications

Crime Prevention

  • Placing restrictions on media to reduce 'copy cat' crimes
  • Youth services, social services, and education system intervene to stop bad behaviour, and reinforce good behaviour
Deterrents
  • Prisons, community orders and fines serve as deterrents
  • As people observe others  being punished, they are less likely to imitate the actions
Rehabilitation
  • Teaches criminals appropriate behaviour. This may be education in maths and english or in skill workshops
