| Zusammenfassung: | Using a survey data of 508 probationers from the judicial bureaus of Jiangsu Province, Guangdong Province, Yunnan Province and Beijing City, this study examines how the general strain variables (i.e. negative coping style) and the action control variables (i.e. emotion regulation strategies) mediate and moderate the relationship between the perceived discrimination and future dangerousness of probationers. The findings suggest that perceived discrimination is positively correlated with future dangerousness, and negative coping style plays a partial positive mediating role in the relationship between perceived discrimination and future dangerousness. Additionally, emotion regulation strategies can moderate the direct effect of perceived discrimination on future dangerousness and the mediating effect of negative coping style in a negative way. The results of this study further enrich the integrated theory of crime labeling, and offer some guidance for the judicial management and correction strategy of probation correction officials. |
