EXAM #1
Answer two of the three questions below in detail. Each question is worth 15 points.
Answers will be graded on whether they answer the question, whether they are accurate,
whether they are grammatically correct, and whether they are logically assembled. Each
answer can be no longer than four pages double spaced (no smaller than 11 point font); I
will not read beyond the fourth page (a total of eight pages). The answers should include
all relevant citations (excluding a pertinent citation will result in a lower grade). Your
exams should be grounded in the empirical literature and I do not want you to express
your opinions on the exam (you can discuss your opinions on the Discussion Board).
Exams must be delivered via Canvas no later than 12:00 pm (noon) EST on March 3rd (no
exceptions—20 points are deducted for each minute that the paper is late). I will not accept
exams via email. All exams must include a reference page and your name should be typed
on the last page of the exam. Last words of advice: do not cheat or plagiarize—I will catch
you and you will fail the course. Failure to follow these instructions will adversely affect
your grade. Your grades will be posted on Canvas as soon as I have finished grading all of
them. If you have any questions about the grade that you received, feel free to contact me.
1. Based on all of the theories you have been exposed to so far in the course, choose the one
theory that you think is the best at explaining crime. Compare it to at least two other theories
and discuss how the theory you chose represents an improvement over the other two. Be specific
and be sure to cite the empirical research to support your argument.
2. You are responsible for creating a crime and delinquency prevention program based
exclusively on Hirschi’s social bonding theory. Explain, in detail, how you would use Hirschi’s
social bonding theory to prevent crime and delinquency.
3. During our course discussions, many of you pointed out that the criminological theories that
we discuss have both strengths and limitations. This is a view that is held by many
criminologists. One way to overcome this problem is to integrate theories into a single
perspective. You are responsible for creating an integrated theory that incorporates elements
from at least three theories. Be sure to provide a detailed analysis of this theory, including how
you were able to integrate components from other theories. EXAM #1
