The purpose of this study was to develop and test a measure of self-control based on Hirschi s revised conceptualization of the concept of self-control. In addition, two theoretical models based on Gottfredson and Hirshci's discussion of the gender- crime relationship were tested. The findings suggest that Hirschi's revised measure of self-control explains a wide variety of deviant behaviors. The results also indicates that there is empirical support for Gottfredson and Hirschi s (1990) assertions about the gender-crime relationship.
