	Edwin Sutherland's Differential Association (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Differential association is a theory based on the social environment and its surrounding individuals and the values those individuals gain from significant others in their social environment.
		Differential associations may vary in frequency, duration, priority, and intensity.
		According to Differential Association, criminal behavior is learned based on the interactions we have with others and the values that we receive during that interaction.

	Differential association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In criminology, Differential Association is a theory developed by Edwin Sutherland proposing that through interaction with others, individuals learn the values, attitudes, techniques, and motives for criminal behavior.
		The Differential Association Theory is probably the best known Interactionist theory of deviance.
		Differential association predicts that an individual will choose the criminal path when the balance of definitions for law-breaking exceeds those for law-abiding.

	Edwin H. Sutherland
		Differential association theory was Sutherland's major sociological contribution to criminology; similar in importance to strain theory and social control theory.
		Sutherland argued that the concept of differential association and differential social organization could be applied to the individual level and to aggregation (or group) level respectively.
		Differential association refers to the process by which individuals, operating in different social contexts, become exposed to, and ultimately learn, normative definitions favorable and unfavorable to criminal and legal behavior (Akers 1994)".

		Differential association theory assumes that criminal acts occur when a situation appropriate for it, as defined by the person, is present (Sutherland and Cressey, 1969, p.
		Differential association theory is presented as a series of 9 statements, which are summarized here (while keeping much of the original language) according to three general areas: 1) the learning component, 2) the differential association component, and 3) a statement of what criminal activity is not (Sutherland and Cressey, 1969, pp.
		Once differential association takes place, the individual is exposed to definitions, learns through imitation, and receives group reinforcement or punishment for his or her actions.

		Differential association has long been a well-respected sociological theory of the causation of deviant and criminal behavior.
		found that three differential association variables (individual definitions toward the law, other’s definitions toward the law, and number of criminal friends) were “significantly related to the general crime scale as well as the drug, property, and violent crime scales” (2000).
		Differential association is the first stage in social learning, whereby individuals form identities in relation to the specific social group with which he/she interacts.

		Those associating with delinquents are more likely to be delinquent regardless of the effect of these associations on their attitudes and beliefs.
		Association increased perceived acceptance of deviance and perceived acceptance increased was increased by personal tolerance towards the offence in question.
		Most of the studies examined it this study have provided an abundant about of support for Sutherlands first three components of differential association (that criminality is learned, it is learned through intimate association with those who commit crime and that criminality is determined by the frequency, duration, intensity and priority of these associations).

	SOCIAL LEARNING AND DELINQUENCY
		Sutherland=s differential association evolved from his unstated, implicit ideas in his first textbook to an abstract explanation of criminal etiology.
		Later differential association was meant to designate a network of associations with patterns of behavior and carriers of pro-crime or anti-crime attitudes rather than to social contacts confined to actual law-breakers.
		The specific class of behavior learned and its frequency of occurrence are a function of the effective and available reinforcers, and the deviant or nondeviant direction of the norms, rules, and definitions that in the past have accompanied the reinforcement.

	Social learning theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first two stages were used by Edwin Sutherland in his Differential Association Theory.
		Sutherland’s model for learning in a social environment depends on the cultural conflict between different factions in a society over who has the power to determine what is deviant.
		Shaping gives differential reinforcement of behaviours; for example, parents will reinforce ‘baby talk’ and then as the child gets older, regular speech.

		The structural variables are gender, class, and age as indicators of differential location in the social structure; family structure, as a measure of differential social location; and community size, as an indicator of differential social organization.
		The concept of "differential social organization" in the SSSL model incorporates these factors measured at the community or societal level such as population size and density, demographic composition such as the age, gender, and racial distributions or proportions in the population, and other regional, geographical, and economic attributes.
		Differential reinforcement is measured by asking respondents, again separately for alcohol and marijuana, whether they perceive the consequences of use to be mainly negative, mainly positive, or balanced between negative and positive outcomes.

	Introduction
		According to the cultural deviance critique, the theory of differential association rests on the assumptions that “man has no nature, socialization is perfectly successful, and cultural variability is unlimited” (Kornhauser 1978:34).
		“To claim that differential association applies only to deviant cultures, and not at all to individual deviance, is to impute assumptions to the theory that are directly contradictory to propositions clearly stated in the theory and to distinctions expressly maintained by Sutherland” (Akers 1996:232-233).
		While using differential association to explain various types of crime has been a popular topic, some research has focused on clearing up many of the inconsistencies associated with the theory.

	Learning Theories in Criminology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		theory that has had the most impact on criminology is associated with the work of Bandura (1969), a psychologist who formulated the principles of "stimulus control" (stimulus-to-stimulus reinforcement rather than stimulus-behavior reinforcement), outlined the stages of "modeling" (attend, retain, rehearse, perform), and pioneered the field of "vicarious learning" (media influences, for example).
		Differential reinforcement theory tends to fit well with rational choice theory because they both explain the decision making process involved in developing the motivation, attitudes, and techniques necessary to commit crime.
		Not to be overlooked, Jeffery's (1965) theory of differential reinforcement is based on the ideas of conditioning history, deprivation, satiation, the proceeds of crime being reinforcing in themselves, and the absence of punishment.

	Encyclopedia of Criminology
		Sutherland considered differential association to be a general sociological theory of criminal behavior.
		Sutherland relied on differential association theory to explain these crimes, arguing that young executives learn definitions favorable to the violation of the law through the routines of business practice.
		Even if Sutherland never proposed differential association theory nor coined the term white-collar crime, he still would be recognized as a major 20th-century criminologist.

	The Interactionist Perspective on Deviance (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The term "differential group organization" refers to the fact that society is made up of different groups of people with either a criminalistic tradition or an anti-criminalistic tradition.
		The old adage "do as I say, not as I do" (author unknown) holds true to the differential association theory in that people are not thought to become criminals simply by hanging around with other criminals and copying their behavior.
		In summary, the differential association theory says that the greater the criminalistic tradition in a particular group in society, the greater the crime rate amoung that group will be.

	Differential Association
		Differential associations may vary in frequency, duration, priority, and intensity, and a person becomes delinquent because of an excess of definitions favorable to violation of law over definitions unfavorable to violation of law.
		What complicates our ability for a straightforward differential association explanation are the scenes earlier in the movie, for example, when Darrin and Trey and Ricky encounter older kids who take away Ricky's football.
		That's where we might want to supplement Sutherland's differential association theory with another theory in the symbolic interactionist tradition, namely labeling theory.

		Because some exposed individuals acquire only acute illness or are unaffected, we suspected that susceptibility to chronic illness was conferred by particular patterns of genetic polymorphisms, perhaps those coding for antigen presentation to immune T cells.
		Preliminary data indicated that the biotoxin exposure associated with each patient class and allele pattern may also be associated with a distinct pattern of elevation in proinflammatory cytokines.

	INTEGRATIVE INTRODUCTIONS
		Edwin Sutherland’s social learning theory of Differential Association is discussed as well as the problems associated with establishing and maintaining a LC of this nature.
		Our eagerness to find solutions to our pedagogical woes, and to apply Sutherland’s theory of Differential Association to the problems we repeatedly observed in first-year students, led us to believe perhaps creating this model community of readers and writers was important and necessary.

		Their theory is an eclectic, social learning-behavioral choice formulation that relies on both positivist determinism and classical free will as it claims various linkages between criminality and hereditary factors, impulsivity, low intelligence, family practices, school experiences, and the effects of mass media on the individual.
		Krohn (1986) bridged together theoretical propositions from the delinquency-enhancing effects of differential association and the delinquency-constraining effects of social bonds, as these interact with social learning and social control.
		He argues that "motivational strain" is translated into illegal acts through differential associations and corporate subcultures where elites learn to rationalize and neutralize their infractions with social and moral contracts.

	Differential Chromatin Association and Nucleosome Binding of the Maize HMGA, HMGB, and SSRP1 Proteins
		We have characterized the association of the HMGA protein, five different HMGB proteins, and the structure-specific recognition protein 1 (SSRP1) with maize chromatin by extraction experiments using NaCl, ethidium bromide, spermine, and distamycin A. The difference in the release of the proteins from chromatin by these reagents indicates that they are differentially associated with chromatin.
		In the case of the HMGB1 protein, the full-length protein is required for specific nucleosome binding, as the individual HMG-box DNA binding domain (which is sufficient for DNA interactions) interacts nonspecifically with the nucleosomes.
		Collectively, these findings indicate that HMGA, the various HMGB proteins, and SSPR1 are differentially associated with plant chromatin and may act as architectural factors in different nucleoprotein structures.

		Sutherland's theory of Differential Association was, and is, one of the most popular criminological theories.
		Recent interest in differential association theory has been in testing the theory's various theoretical concepts, particularly the notion of associations.
		Sutherland's theory, with its use of differential social organization to explain crime rates, corresponds nicely with social disorganization concerns.
