RT Article T1 When Criminal Coping is Likely: an Examination of Conditioning Effects in General Strain Theory JF Journal of quantitative criminology VO 34 IS 4 SP 887 OP 920 A1 Thaxton, Sherod A2 Agnew, Robert 1953- LA English YR 2018 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1690875704 AB This paper addresses a central problem in general strain theory (GST): the mixed results regarding those factors said to condition the effect of strains on crime. We test Agnew's (Deviant Behav 34(8):653-670, 2013) assertion that a criminal response to strain is likely only when individuals score high on several factors that increase the propensity for criminal coping or possess markers that indicate a strong propensity for criminal coping.
