The Evidence that Criminals Make Rational Choices

Evidence by a criminal investigator to make a reasonable choice is interested by those who tend to commit a crime by obtaining recognition from colleagues and other important people, crime is found and punishment of education It is more likely to believe that it is rather morally wrong. Senescence and even the tendency for parents to reject crime are related to the child's life experience and growing social risks. If a person tends to commit a crime, he / she has a tendency to encourage / obstruct the social norm of criminal behavior and need to adapt rather than commit a crime.

The theory of rational choice began in the late eighteenth century. It was created by Cesare Beccaria. The concept of rational choice theory is that criminals make rational and wise criminal choices. This allows criminals to make decisions if criminals are based on expenses that exceed expenses or punishments. The XYY theory began in 1965. Established by Patricia A. Jacobs. Patricia Jacobs examined the chromosomal abnormality of 197 Scottish prisoners with a simple blood test. Super men, also known as XYY syndrome, has little evidence that men with this syndrome are committing more serious violent crimes than other males. However, they may commit more crimes (Schmalleger, 2008)

Rational choice theory and its assumptions about human behavior are incorporated into many criminal logic theories and criminal justice interventions. The theory of rational choice comes from the work of Cesare Beccaria in the second half of the 18th century. Since then, the theory has expanded to include other aspects such as expansion, deterrence, prevention of crime by circumstances, daily activity theory. Rational choices are applied to various crimes such as robbery, substance abuse, vandalism, white-collar crime and so on. In addition, neuropsychological literature suggests that neurobiological mechanisms exist in our "rational choice".
