Deterrence and the Moral Context: Is the Impact of Perceived Sanction Risk Dependent on Best Friends’ Moral Beliefs?:

TLDR
The authors suggests that the size of a potential sanction risk effect is conditional on characteristics of the person and properties of the setting. But they do not consider the effect of individual characteristics on the sanction risk.
Abstract
Research on differential deterrability suggests increasingly that the size of a potential sanction risk effect is conditional on characteristics of the person and properties of the setting. Whether...

Differential Self-control Effects: Moral Filtering and the Subsidiary Relevance of Self-control

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the role of self-control in crime causation and find that the significance of an individual's capacity for self control increases with a growing weakness of the moral filter, reaching its maximum when both personal and setting morality encourage criminal activity.

Differenzielle Abschreckbarkeit als Evidenzgrundlage negativer Generalprävention – Eine Bestandsaufnahme der kriminologischen Wissensbasis

TL;DR: The concept of differential deterrability is introduced in perceptual deterrence research as mentioned in this paper, and it has been shown that individuals who hold weak moral beliefs, possess low self-control and have many delinquent friends are more susceptible to a crime-reducing impact of perceived sanction risk.

Multiple Regression: Testing and Interpreting Interactions

TL;DR: In this article, multiple regression is used to test and interpret multiple regression interactions in the context of multiple-agent networks. But it is not suitable for single-agent systems, as discussed in this paper.

High self-control predicts good adjustment, less pathology, better grades, and interpersonal success.

TL;DR: Tests for curvilinearity failed to indicate any drawbacks of so-called overcontrol, and the positive effects remained after controlling for social desirability, so low self-control is a significant risk factor for a broad range of personal and interpersonal problems.

Statistical difficulties of detecting interactions and moderator effects

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the differential efficiency of experimental and field tests of interactions is also attributable to the differential residual variances of such interactions once the component main effects have been partialed out.

Negative Binomial Regression

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce the concept of risk in count response models and assess the performance of count models, including Poisson regression, negative binomial regression, and truncated count models.

Logistic Regression: Why We Cannot Do What We Think We Can Do, and What We Can Do About It

TL;DR: This paper showed that logistic regression estimates do not behave like linear regression estimates in one important respect: they are affected by omitted variables, even when these variables are unrelated to the independent variables in the model.
