Axia College Material Appendix E Gang Development and Control Tables Gang Development Below are descriptions of gang development theories. Copy and paste the correct description into the table below next to the appropriate theory. There are five descriptions and four theories. One description is not valid. • Gang members are violent and rarely show remorse or feelings regarding their violent and criminal actions. Members may join a gang because it provides them a release for their personal problems, which may include drug abuse, low self-esteem, and family problems. Gang members typically come from low income areas and may even be considered to have been “forced” into gang life in order to survive.
The gang provides a sense of belonging in a world where members may lack positive role models and the ability to attain status in a way considered acceptable by society. • Joining a gang is a way to obtain money and protection. It is often seen as a personal decision to gain success. Members who join for this reason feel pride when they get away with a crime and were most likely committing illegal acts long before joining a gang. Members join a gang to have a safe social circle and to learn techniques to communicate through graffiti. Gang members use those techniques to display their gang’s strength and power in their neighborhood. Members who join a gang for this reason are typically involved in drug use and truancy but rarely violent acts of delinquency. • Individuals who join gangs for this reason may have an older family member who is a gang member. They may go through distinct hazing rituals before they can join.
The hazing rituals offer assurance that the individual is capable and ready to start his or her new life as a gang member. |Theory |Description | |Anthropological |Individuals who join gangs for this reason may have an older family member who is a gang member.
