Introduction to Criminology: Crime, Offenders and
Criminal Behaviour
CMY1501
Department of Criminology and Security Science
Assignment 01 for 2021 (compulsory)
Due Date: 10 May 2021




ASSIGNMENT 01: MULTIPLE- CHOICE QUESTIONS

1. All theories and models in criminology have limitations. The … model, perceives research
to be value free, without biases and it does not assist in seeking alternatives to the
present social and economic order.

1. critical
2. positivist
3. classical
4. feminist

Answer:

Refer to page 26 of the study guide:

Some limitations of the positivist model
The positivist approach does, however, suffer from several overt problems. Firstly,
it assumes that pure objectivity is possible – that research can be “value free” or
without any biases. Secondly, it takes for granted the existing social and economic
order; that is, it generally accepts the status quo and the official definition of reality.
Part of the reality that is accepted includes the standard definitions of “crime” – that is,
the state’s definition of crime.
