STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
STRENGTHS :
Longitudinal study - alot of Qualitative data collected over SEVERAL years of interviews
WEAKNESSES :
NO CONTROL GROUP - we do not know if it is just criminals that think like this or if many non-criminals have these thoughts of isolation / irratation too ?
Self Report method - lying could have been a factor in interviews to disturb results.
in attempt to seem themselves different from the rest or just play up to researcher.
CHANGED aim of study
