1. some criminologists believe that the threat of punishment is sufficient to control crime. are there other forms of social control? aside from the threat of legal punishments, what else controls your own behavior?

2. would it be ethical for a criminologist to observe a teenage gang by “hanging” with them, drinking alcohol with underage minors, and watching as they steal cars? should the criminologist report that behavior to the police?

3. can you identify behaviors that are deviant but not criminal? what about crimes that are illegal but not deviant?

1. A thing that could control ones behavior is peer pressure. If we see others acting in a bad way we may think that's cool and want to be just like them.
A thing that could also control behavior is family or friends , some people may not do a bad thing because they think of family or friends and that loved one makes them stop doing the criminal act because they know if they did it that one person that they care about would be dissopointed.

2. I believe that wouldn't be a good thing because if a criminologist is ''hanging'' around with them he's basically being one of them , he also has no power to stop it so it makes him just as bad.
He should report it to the police because those things are criminal offences.

3. Rebellian or protesting isn't a criminal offence but they may be seen as deviant.
fighting someone could be seen as deviant however to other places it may be seen as a crime.
Some traffic rules may not be deviant.
Sex crimes are not deviant
