This chapter discusses various theories of criminology and crime statistics reporting in the United States. It introduces biological, psychological, and sociological explanations for criminal behavior. Sociological theories covered include social disorganization theory, differential association theory, and strain theory. The chapter also discusses conflict theories. It describes the development of victims' rights advocacy and the key government agencies that collect crime statistics, such as the Uniform Crime Reports, National Incident-Based Reporting System, and National Crime Victimization Survey. Clearance rates are defined as the percentage of crimes police solve.
Booklet that I made for criminological theories revision, using resources from the internet. These theories include:
* Classical Theory
* Functionalist Crime Theories (includes Durkheim and Merton)
* Marxist Theory
* Right realism
* Left realism
* Labelling (Interactionism)
* Individualistic theories (learning theories, psychological theories and psychodynamic theories)
* Eysenck's theory
* Family crime theories
* Neurophysiological (brain damage)
* Neurochemical
* Kohlberg's moral development
* Behaviourist theory
Classical Theory: One of the earliest approaches to explaining the causes of crime was classical theory. A product of the Enlightenment, based on the assumption that people exercise free will and are thus completely responsible for their actions. In classical theory, human behavior, including criminal behavior, is motivated by a hedonistic rationality, in which actors weigh the potential pleasure of an action against the possible pain associated with it.
Neo-Classical: A modification of classical theory in which it was conceded that certain factors, such as insanity, might inhibit the exercise of free will. Premeditation as a measure of the degree of free will.
Mitigating circumstances as legitimate grounds for diminished responsibility.

CRIME THEORIES
The function of theory is to provide puzzles for research (Lewis Coser)
Source: O'Connor, T. (03/26/04). In Crime Theories, MegaLinks in Criminal Justice. Retrieved from

To understand criminal justice, it is necessary to understand crime. Most policy-
making in criminal justice is based on criminological theory, whether the people making
those policies know it or not. In fact, most of the failed policies (what doesn't work) in
criminal justice are due to misinterpretation, partial implementation, or ignorance of
criminological theory. Much time and money could be saved if only policymakers had a
thorough understanding of criminological theory. At one time, criminological theory was
rather pure and abstract, with few practical implications, but that is not the case anymore.
For example, almost all criminologists today use a legalistic rather than normative
definition of crime. A legalistic definition of crime takes as its starting point the statutory
definitions contained in the penal code, legal statutes or ordinances. A crime is a crime
because the law says so. Sure, there are concerns about overcriminalization (too many
laws) and undercriminalization (not enough laws), but at least on the surface, a legalistic
approach seems practical. It is also advantageous to a normative definition, which sees
crime as a violation of norms (social standards of how humans ought to think and
behave), although there are times when criminology can shed light on norms and norm
violators.
Every criminological theory contains a set of assumptions (about human nature,
social structure, and the principles of causation, to name a few), a description of the
phenomena to be explained (facts a theory must fit), and an explanation, or prediction,
of that phenomenon. The assumptions are also called meta-theoretical issues, and deal
with debates like those over free will v. determinism or consensus v. conflict. The
description is a statistical profile, figure, diagram, or table of numbers representing the
patterns, trends, and correlates of the type of crime taken as an exemplar (most
appropriate example) of all crime. The explanation is a set of variables (things that can
be tweaked or changed) arranged in some kind of causal order so that they have statistical
and meaningful significance. Criminological theories are primarily concerned with
etiology (the study of causes or reasons for crime), but occasionally have important
things to say about actors in the criminal justice system, such as police, attorneys,
correctional personnel, and victims.
There are basically thirteen (13) identifiable types of criminological theory,
only three (3) of which are considered "mainstream" or conventional criminology (strain,
learning, control). The oldest theory (biochemistry) goes back to 1876 and the last four
theories (left realism, peacem.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
