Preferred term

peer networks and victimization  

Definition(s)

  • Peer relations have long been central to the study of crime and delinquency. This is because adolescents spend much time with their friends, attribute great importance to friends, and are more strongly influenced by them during this period of the life course than at any other time. [Source: Encyclopedia of Victimology and Crime Prevention; Peer Networks and Victimization]
