You are a judge considering the sentences of several convicted offenders. The first offender has been found guilty of burglary and larceny for the third time. The report tells you that the offender's previous sentences were probation for the first offense and 14 days in jail for the second. You determine that the offender has not learned his lesson after the first two convictions, and you intend

Because you imposed this long sentence to try to teach this individual a lesson, so that he will not choose to offend again in the future, your sentence is an attempt at: a. general deterrence. b. specific deterrence. c. rehabilitation. d. incapacitation.
