Gender and general strain theory: A preliminary test of Broidy and Agnew's gender/GST hypotheses (2004, background): “Is it the case that females, in general, manifest negative emotions in the same manner as do males, in general, or are female offenders simply a different type of female (see Baskin & Sommers, 1998)? Chesney-Lind (1989) suggested the latter by arguing that females offend, in part, because of their a”
Gender Differences in Delinquency and Juvenile Justice Processing (2009, methodology): “The range of behavior generally considered acceptable is narrower for females (Chesney-Lind, 1973, 1995; Dembo, Williams, & Schmeidler, 1993; Kempf-Leonard & Sample, 1998), and different factors appear to affect how females are processed (ChesneyLind & Shelden, 1992; gelsthorpe, 1989; Krohn, Curry, ”
The HCR‐20 in personality disordered female offenders: a comparison with a matched sample of males (2005, background): “…for women compared with men because risk factors for women are closely linked to their unique experiences as women, for instance victimization (Chesney-Lind, 1989; Scarth & McLean, 1994) or to the fact that social bonds are of greater importance to women than to men and that women are thus…”

The Police Reporting Behavior of Intimate Partner Violence Victims (2009, background): “Researchers argued that in a male dominated society, where almost all positions of power and influence are held by men, women are often considered as legitimate objects of victimization and abuse (Chesney-Lind 1989; Fattah 1981; Jasinski 2001).”
Pubertal Development and Physical Victimization in Adolescence (2006, background): “Most important, future research should incorporate a specific focus on sexual victimization because females are more likely to experience this type of victimization than are males and may be more likely to react to such victimization with criminal behavior (see Chesney-Lind 1989; Katz 2000).”
“I didn’t do it, but if I did I had a good reason”: Minimization, Denial, and Attributions of Blame Among Male and Female Domestic Violence Offenders (2005, background): “In the broader offender treatment literature it has been argued that female offending has different causes (e.g., Chesney-Lind, 1989; Katz, 2000) and thus, requires gender-specific treatment approaches (Morash et al., 1998).”
Assessing Recidivism Risk Across Female Pathways to Crime (2006, background): “Accordingly, feminists reject the notion that the same ordered sets of propositions explain both male and female criminality (Belknap, 2001; Chesney-Lind, 1989; Daly & Chesney-Lind, 1988; Simpson, 1989), and argue that male-centered theories fail to appreciate a variety of elements unique to female ”
