Article 1:
1a. In Table 1, the first chi-square test explores the relationship between gender and students who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, questioning (LGBQ) youth and straight-identified students who report being involved in same-sex sexual behavior (SSB) youth; race – Black, White, Hispanic, other; and age.
1b. The second chi-square test explores the relationship between gender and victimization (number of school days missed during the past month because feeling unsafe, rate of property stolen or damaged at school during the past year, frequency of being threatened or injured with a weapon at school, times in a physical fight at school, and rate injured in a physical …show more content…
The aggression, alienation, and social potency scales are consistently positively correlated with delinquency across both genders and both measures of delinquency. As an example of one positive relationship, as aggression increases, self-reported delinquency and informant-reported delinquency increases among males and females.
2d. The traditionalism, harm avoidance, and control scales are consistently negatively correlated with delinquency across both genders and both measures of delinquency. As an example of one negative relationship, as traditionalism increases, self-reported delinquency and informant-reported delinquency decreases among males and females.
3a. According to Table 2, the achievement scale is significant for females, but not for males. The value of correlation for males is .00 indicating no correlation and the value of correlation females is -.13, indicating a negative correlation.
3b. In Table 5, the constraint and negative emotionality higher-order personality factors consistently demonstrate significant correlations with the various measures of delinquency or crime for males and females.
3c. The same pattern of findings is observed in Table 7 and Table 5. Accordingly, there is a generalized correlation between delinquency measures and high-order personalities by sex in Table 5 and by race in Table
