Abstract

• "This paper examines the subculture of violence thesis (Wolfgang,
  1958) as an example of a sociological theory with a feedback process.
  The thesis is operationalized in a simultaneous equation model, which
  is solved through a technique which uses only a "canned" ordinary
  least squares computer program. The findings do not support the
  subculture of violence thesis."
