criminology
Mary, a criminologist, is studying juvenile delinquency in her community. She has found that the majority of juvenile crimes are committed between the hours of 3 pm and 5 pm. She wants to start an after-school program for at-risk youths to see if it has an impact on delinquency rates. She would like your help in designing the research project.
Answer the following questions in a 250-300 word, double-spaced, paper.
1. Does Mary’s research involve a theory of correlation, causation, or both? Provide reasoning to support your choice.
Is this an example of applied or pure research? Does it involve primary or secondary research? Explain your answers.
Which two techniques of data collection do you feel would be most beneficial for Mary to use? Would this project be more suited to quantitative or qualitative research methods? Support your opinions with reasons.
What ethical considerations does Mary need to address before she begins her research?
