-increasing the effort needed to commit a crime
-increasing the risk of rewards of crim
-inducing guilt
-reducing provocation
-removing excuses
on lesser offenses that aren’t motivation filled.
Benefits of Sitational Crime Prevention
Diffusion - when fforts to prevent one crime unintentionally prevent another crime as well
Discouragement - when crime control efforts targeting a specific location help reduce crime in surrounding areas
Costs of Situational Crime Preventation
Displacement - when crime control efforts redirect offenders to alternative targets
Extinction - when crime reduction programs produce a short term positive effect, but benefits dissipate as criminals adjust
Replacement - when criminals move to new offenses because crime control efforts have neutralized thier crime of choice
General Deterrance
punish someone else and somebody else decides to not partcipate in that behavior
