Interpreting risky behavior as a contextually appropriate response: Significance and policy implications beyond socioeconomic status
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 November 2017
Abstract
The significance of the contextually appropriate response perspective (CARP) can be judged, in part, by its potential to stimulate new research and guide public policy. To illustrate this potential, I move beyond socioeconomic status differences in behavior and apply CARP to broader, policy-relevant issues in criminology. In this area, CARP sheds new light on some old problems.
