Offender as Forager? A Direct Test of the Boost Account of Victimization (2009, background): “Piquero 2000 ), a further question concerned whether patterns of one type of crime might influence those of another.”
Murder by numbers: monetary costs imposed by a sample of homicide offenders (2010, background): “This is concordant with research indicating that offenders tend not to specialize in violence (Piquero, 2000).”
6. A Multivariate, Multilevel Rasch Model with Application to Self-Reported Criminal Behavior (2003, background): “In fact, the notion of individual-level specialization has not found much support in the literature (Wolfgang et al. 1972; Blumstein et al. 1986; Piquero 2000).”
Extreme career criminals (2001, background): “Another consideration is that age refers to how old the suspect was at the time of the arrest and not necessarily at the time of the offense (Dean, Brame, & Piquero, 1996; Loeber et al., 1998; Moffitt, 2001; Piquero, 2000; Tracy & Kempf-Leonard, 1996).”
A Life-Course Analysis of Offense Specialization Across Age: Introducing a New Method for Studying Individual Specialization Over the Life Course (2011, unknown): “…Farrington, Snyder, & Finnegan, 1988; Lynam, Moffitt, & Piquero, 2004; Mazerolle, Brame, Paternoster, Piquero, & Dean, 2000; Osgood & Schreck, 2007; Piquero, 2000; Piquero, Paternoster, Mazerolle, Brame, & Dean, 1999; Sullivan, McGloin, Pratt, & Piquero, 2006; Sullivan, McGloin, Caudy, & Ray,…”
Detecting Specialization in Offending: Comparing Analytic Approaches (2009, background): “in this study as specialization has been found to vary with age (e.g., Piquero 2000 ).”
‘I Wasn't Alone’: Collective Behaviour and Violent Delinquency (2009, background): “Though it is not explicitly about co-offending, there is work from the criminal career literature that demonstrates high frequency offenders are more likely to have a history of violence (Farrington, 1989; Piquero, 2000; Piquero, Farrington, & Blumstein, 2003).”
Is stalking a learned phenomenon? An empirical test of social learning theory (2011, background): “The dominant perspective among many criminologists suggests that offenders do not tend to specialize in violent behavior (Blumstein, Cohen, Das, & Moitra, 1988; Piquero, 2000) and, therefore, it may be argued that theoretical variables predicting one crime type can successfully predict another.”
