Most of us should be experts on crime with how many crime shows we’ve watched! Are you watching any currently? We will dig deeper than just solving the whodunit and try to solve the bigger mystery of why we have crime and who becomes a criminal.

This chapter has a lot of theories, so schedule extra retrieval practice to learn them. A search feature is also available in the top right corner to search through the chapters when needed. For example, if you can’t remember the details of the differential association theory, use the search feature to find it quickly.

 

In the last chapter, you learned about the power of beliefs as they predict our motivation, persistence, and engagement as we pursue our goals and our resilience when we face setbacks. In this chapter, you will learn about expertise and why science indicates that chunking is important for success.

You are roughly halfway through SociologicalYOU. Are you fully comfortable navigating the textbook? If you have any issues, please reach out to us at Support@SociologicalYOU.com. We want your learning experience to be smooth and problem-free.
