“…Women have been ignored in much of the history of criminology, leading one criminologist to comment that their inclusion could result in discarding theories because of their inapplicability to women (Reckless 1967). During the late 1960s, the feminist critique of criminology began emerging to challenge the omission of women (Heidensohn 1969). But even today, says Chesney‐Lind (2006), the lack of attention to gender continues, and therefore, the issue of gender gap has yet to be fully examined.…”

There is evidence that females are less likely to cheat than males on college campuses. A frequently offered but still untested explanation is that females, with a stronger sense of responsibility for the maintenance of social relationships, tend to develop a stronger bond to a conventional society—a key explanatory concept in Hirschi’s (1969) social control theory. With academic cheating as the dependent variable, we test the hypotheses that the four elements of social bond are the intervening variables linking gender to such dishonesty among Japanese students who, due to their stronger orientation toward masculinity on Hofstede’s (1980) scale of gender role separation, are subject to more gender distinct socialization, leading to greater gender differences in the strength of social bond than those previously reported in the United States. The analysis provides rather limited support for the theory, most of which is due to the stronger belief in the legitimacy of societal rules among the females.

“…Of major importance is the finding that both groups of women do not perceive themselves to be that different from other women, even though society treats them as such. This is not an unusual finding as it supports other studies (Rosenblum, 1975;Bryan, 1966;Heidensohn, 1968), which offer a critique of the female sex role.…”

“…À partir de ce constat d'une science à la fois partielle et partiale, elles ont développé deux types d'approches. Les unes interrogent le pourquoi de la (non) criminalité des femmes, certaines chercheuses émettant l'hypothèse d'une socialisation différentielle, à l'origine de la dissymétrie sexuelle qui traverse délinquance et pénalité (Heidensohn, 1968 ;Bertrand, 1979, Carlen, 1988. La théorie des rôles sexuels élaborée alors nous permet d'échapper aux explications biologiques et psychologiques et de visualiser l'impact du nombre limité d'opportunités illégitimes structurellement accessibles aux femmes sur la nature et l'importance de leur criminalité (Parent, 1992, 300).…”
