What are some of the various attempts to explain the gender ratio problem? How do biosocial criminologists address this issue? What factors need to be addressed when studying crime and gender?

Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).


Answer: Answers should discuss the gender ratio problem and the work of researchers such as Freda Adler, Darrell Steffensmeier, and Thomas Bernard. Walsh's emphasis on gender itself as being responsible for the observed differences should be expanded upon, and the need to emphasize biology when studying gender differences should be discussed.
