Risky Lifestyles, Low Self-control, and Violent Victimization Across Gendered Pathways to Crime (2015, background): “Contrary to traditional empirical approaches that pit ‘‘motivation’’ and ‘‘opportunity’’ theories against one another, the marriage of lifestyle and self-control theories allows for a more comprehensive study of victimization (Holtfreter et al. 2008; Schreck et al. 2006; Stewart et al. 2004).”
Perceived Risk of Internet Theft Victimization (2009, background): “…previously, research by Stewart, Schreck, and colleagues has reported that personal traits (i.e., low self-control) increase the probability of street and fraud victimization (see, e.g., Schreck et al., 2006; Schreck, Wright, & Miller, 2002; Stewart et al., 2004; see also Holtfreter et al., 2008).”
Secondary Exposure to Violence During Childhood and Adolescence: Does Neighborhood Context Matter? (2009, background): “In particular, low self-control increases the likelihood that individuals will engage in delinquency (Pratt & Cullen, 2000), become victims of violent crime (Schreck, 1999), and select into risky environments/situations that have a high likelihood for violence to occur (Schreck et al., 2006).”
How Do They ‘End Up Together’? A Social Network Analysis of Self-Control, Homophily, and Adolescent Relationships (2011, result): “The findings reported here diverge from previous studies documenting a relationship between self-control and friendship selection (e.g., Evans et al. 1997; Schreck et al. 2006; McGloin and Shermer 2009).”
Assessing the Effect of Routine Activity Theory and Self-Control on Property, Personal, and Sexual Assault Victimization (2012, background): “…importance of low self-control for understanding personal victimization (Baron et al., 2007; kerley et al., 2009; Piquero et al., 2005; Schreck et al., 2002; Schreck et al., 2006; Stewart et al., 2004), with some studies including property victimization (kerley et al., 2009; Schreck et al., 2006).”
Low Self‐Control and Contact with the Criminal Justice System in a Nationally Representative Sample of Males (2009, background): “Low selfcontrol has also been shown to significantly predict violent victimization (Stewart, Elifson, & Sterk, 2004) and membership in risky antisocial groups ( Schreck, Stewart, & Fisher, 2006 ).”
Exploring the Link Between Low Self-Control and Violent Victimization Trajectories in Adolescents (2009, methodology): “We used the same impulsivity and risk-taking measures as Schreck et al. (2006) from the Grasmick, Tittle, Bursik, and Arneklev (1993) 24-item Low Self-Control Scale to construct our measure of self-control.”
“Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop”: Self-Control, Risky Lifestyles, and Repeat Victimization (2012, methodology): “Until the present study, it seemed that efforts to reduce victimization would have the greatest hope of success if they could proactively instill self-control in young children (see e.g., Schreck et al. 2002, 2006).”
Lifestyle and Routine Activity Theories Revisited: The Importance of “Risk” to the Study of Victimization (2016, methodology): “Accordingly, studies linking self-control and lifestyle/routine activity theories have been conducted (Holtfreter et al., 2008; Schreck et al., 2006; Stewart et al., 2004) and this work has proven quite useful in explaining victimization (Franklin, 2011; Pratt et al., 2014; Reyns, Henson, & Fisher,…”
Low Self-Control and Imprudent Behavior Revisited (2011, background): “…et al. 2008; Holtfreter et al. 2010; Perrone et al. 2004; Ratchford and Beaver 2009; Schoepfer and Piquero 2006; Unnever et al. 2003; Vazsonyi and Crosswhite 2004), and criminal victimization (Holtfreter et al. 2008; Piquero et al. 2005; Schreck 1999; Schreck et al. 2006; Stewart et al. 2004).”
Déjà vu All Over Again: Investigating Temporal Continuity of Adolescent Victimization (2008, background): “For instance, in response to a previous victimization experience, individuals may withdraw from preexisting pro-social attachments and commitments and become increasingly socially marginalized ( Schreck et al. 2006 ).”
Something Old, Something New: Revisiting Competing Hypotheses of the Victimization-Offending Relationship Among Adolescents (2011, background): “Consistent with a number of prior studies of criminal victimization (e.g., Sampson and Lauritsen 1990; Lauritsen et al. 1991, 1992; Schreck et al. 2006 ) our results indicate that involvement in offending has a positive effect on victimization.”
An Investigation of the Relationship between Self-Control and Alcohol-Induced Sexual Assault Victimization (2011, background): “…assault) (Schreck et al., 2002), disaggregated personal and property victimization but not including rape and sexual assault (Schreck, 1999; Schreck et al., 2006), homicide victimization (Piquero et al., 2005), solely a measure of property victimization (Kerley et al., 2009), or fraud or…”
Gendered Opportunity? (2009, background): “In a similar fashion, studies have shown delinquent peer associations to be significantly positively related to student victimization (Schreck et al. 2003), as well as adolescent victimization more broadly (see, e.g., Schreck et al. 2006).”
Reciprocal Effects of Victimization and Routine Activities (2011, background): “On the other hand, prior research by Schreck and colleagues has shown that the likelihood of victimization is predicted by low self-control (Schreck 1999), while in turn, those with low self-control are less likely to change risky routine activities ( Schreck et al. 2006 ).”
