“…Measures related to socialization messages and experiences are also important. Although such measures exist for some groups (e.g., Bem, 1974; Briggs, Kothari, Briggs, Bank, & DeGruy, 2015; Phinney, 1992; Sellers, Smith, Shelton, Rowley, & Chavous, 1998), continued refinement as well as creation of measures for other groups are worthy empirical endeavors. Survey instruments should also aim to capture various experiences with institutions and structural barriers.…”

Although issues related to disparities and inequalities have long been assessed in criminological research, the orthodox approaches to understanding these differences have historically been largely rooted in cultural deficit or individual pathology perspectives. Progressive scholars have long condemned these failings of orthodox criminology, calling for group‐based theories of crime, with some scholars attempting to heed the call. Although such specific articulations are worthwhile endeavors, they still often overlook the intersectional, multileveled, and historically rooted lived experiences of diverse people. To best understand disparate pathways to and from criminal behavior and entanglements with the criminal justice system, variations in historically rooted social statuses, unique socialization experiences, and how these influence various intersecting emergent identities must be acknowledged and better accounted for in empirical work. Building on Potter's call for a disruption of criminology and taking an interdisciplinary approach, I posit an integrative structured identities model as a potential framework for understanding within and between group disparities in crime. How this model may be achieved empirically as well as the potential theoretical and policy implications are discussed.
