Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: In their general theory of crime, Gottfredson and Hirschi describe the propensity of certain persons for crime. Specifically, low self-control persons relative to persons with higher levels of self-control exhibit a higher propensity for crime and analogous behavior. Social learning theory, as articulated by Akers, emphasizes the various mechanisms by which the motives, orientations, and methods of crime and delinquency are learned and reinforced. Using data collected during a two-year long assessment of a municipal court alcohol treatment program, we explore the ability of variables taken from both theories to predict subsequent criminal conduct on the part of all drunk-drivers appearing before the court, including those subjected to treatment. Over 200 participants were followed for up to 18 months after their appearance for sentencing on DWI charges. The primary research question is this: How do variables drawn from both social learning and self-control theories fare when predicting subsequent contact with the criminal justice system? The paper addresses both the theory and policy implications of the findings.
