This article examines the reasons that women and men give in explaining why women willingly agree to sexual intimacy when they would rather not be intimate at that time. Data collected from a sample of students on a southern campus included a set of scales which measured the beliefs about why women consent to unwanted sexual intercourse held by men and women. The findings indicated that most sexual intercourse was consensual and mutually desired. Perceived reasons for consent to unwanted sex by women varied for men and women, as did the ranking of relative importance of the reasons. Some support was found for the contention that compliance might be a function of gender socialization. 相似文献

Habitual offender acts have been adopted by 43 states and are under consideration in the legislatures of others. These acts
have been adopted with relatively little evaluation of the costs involved in the implementation of this legislation. This
study seeks to evaluate the extent to which Alabama’s habitual offender statute captures serious career criminals. The results
indicate that the differences between those in the prison population sentenced under habitual offender statutes and those
sentenced under other statutes is not significant. There does appear to be support for the contention that the majority of
prisoners have substantial criminal histories; however, it is noted that many have not committed a severe crime.
The exaggerated claims for the number of crimes committed by “typical” offenders and resultant high costs of non-incarceration
are examined and challenged. The authors suggest that the resources available to deal with offenders could be better invested
in the development and testing of community-based programs designed to divert offenders from a life of crime rather than in
programs which intervene after criminal histories are severe and which invoke life-long incarceration as a remedy.
The authors wish to express their appreciation to the Alabama Department of Corrections for their assistance in this project. 相似文献

Judges are under pressure both to combat crime with longer prison sentences and to increase the use of sentencing options which permit use of a graduated system of dispositions which can be used to rehabilitate offenders. The judges are faced with overcrowded prisons and a general lack of the community programs recommended by many professional organizations and scholars. It is recommended here that judges take an active role in encouraging the development of community-based alternatives such as local work release. This study found that a male judge is a more effective communicator than a bailiff and that he could cause a change in attitude toward work release in a sample of citizens. Thus, judges can anticipate some degree of success if they choose to participate in efforts to develop community support for sentencing alternatives. 相似文献
