BEHAVIOUR OF PEOPLE ON THE MOVE
GEDRAG VAN MENSEN IN BEWEGING
This thesis is concerned with behaviour of a kind that most people are apt to show at one time or another, but which is considered deviant by our society, and which generally falls under the heading of "minor offence" or "misdemeanour". The research is concentrated not only on the frequency of such behaviour but also on its underlying motivational factors and consequences, especially where these might influence its development into more serious offences. The study is divided into three parts: a theoretical part, an empirical section and a section concerned with general policy. In the theoretical part the aim is to prove that socio-psychological theories can be meaningfully applied to criminology and further that human behaviour is amenable to change. The empirical section concerns types of behaviour which one may encounter daily, that of people on the move. Here moving by means of private transport can be differentiated from moving by means of public transport. In the final section a number of policies for reducing the frequency rate of deviant behaviour are suggested. /TRRL/
