Criminal Behavior: Nature vs. Nurture Part One
Criminal behavior (and human behavior in general) has long been a topic of debate not only among professional circles but also with society as a whole. Some attribute behavior stemming solely from one's environment and others are more inclined to say behavior is due to one's genetic makeup. I decided to once and for all try to find the answer to this question by doing some research myself. The question of nature vs. nurture. In the end I was actually quite surprised by what I found and I will share it with you in my two-part article, Criminal Behavior: Nature vs. Nurture.
