Document Summary
Bring two or more theories together to create new model. Ronald akers" 2009 social learning theory attempts to integrate differential association theory, operant conditioning and imitation and modeling behavior. Charles title"s 1995 control balance theory attempts to integrate control theory, deterrence theory and propensity theory. John hagan"s power control theory attempts to integrate marxian conflict theory with social control theory. Hirschi says it"s a waste of time trying to integrate theories because their underlying assumptions are fundamentally incompatible. Best way to combine two or more theories into a single theory is to create an end to end model. End to end model consists of: structural (macro) theory => middle (bridging) theory => micro (process) theory. Created control theory and the life course perspective 1995 studies in crime and crime. Published after their 1990 general theory of crime and after sampson and laub"s turning. Argues that life course perspective is diametrically opposed or dead wrong.
