Bandura’s experiment on children being exposed to aggressive behaviour and therefore imitating this behaviour is somehow evidence to show that on some occasions, behaviour can be learnt. There are many different ways people can learn criminal behaviours from other people, for example having a sibling that always steals, or having a aggressive father who uses physical harm in order to control people. Being exposed to behaviour like this in everyday life and when people you love or may respect, like your family are portraying this behaviour, then this may be seen as the norm for people and they may think it is okay to imitate this behaviour. There have been many different studies and theories into how upbringing can influence people into turning to crime. For example Farrington conducted an experiment into how disrupted families can affect how likely someone is to turn to crime, and they found that most participants defined as ‘chronic offenders’ shared the same or similar characteristics, for example convicted parents, delinquent siblings and young parents.

It is the process of collecting data, evidence or any information that will lead to the arrest of a suspect. Both methods have similarities. It includes the who, (who was involved) the what, (what happened), the when (when did it happen), the where (where did it happen) and the how (how did it happen). An example of both methods combined will be when an investigator collects information from witness, evidence and data bases then use it to reconstruct the past.
