A)Objective strain affects goals that are high in relative important
B) Individual coping resources such as intelligence, temperament,m problem solving skills, self efficacy and self-esteem. All may vary and influence which coping strategies are used. 
C)Conventional social support is important to facilitate coping. Without parents, teachers, peers, etc., supplying support then they may turn to pain avoidance as coping method.
D) Cost and Benefits not equally weighed out and thought out by juvenile. Illegitimate means necessary for delinquency are focused on.

They do not need to rely on finding new ways to reach those goals as delinquents do. 

Pain-Avoidance juveniles, as studied by Robert Agnew, will shower higher amounts of delinquency. Those in aversive environments, maybe a neglectful home or having an absent parent, will show a strong tie to delinquency, especially when they cannot escape the environment. Agnew focuses on this group. ]]> 2020-12-09 18:39:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1003521599 ktrillha19 https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1003771709 2020-12-09 19:34:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1003771709 ktrillha19 https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1003788999 -Failure to achieve goals because of lack of conventional socialization

2nd: Loss of positive stimuli, such as losing money, breaking up with someone, death of a family member.
3rd: Presentation of negative stimuli. Experiencing painful events and conditions that generate negative emotions and may prompt criminal coping strategies when lacking the capabilities to cope in a legal manner.

It's estimated that 7,100 juvenile defendants were charged with felonies in adult criminal court in 1998.
-In 64% of those cases, were more likely than adults to receive a violent felony charge.
-62% of these juvenile defendants were Black, 20% White, 16% Hispanic and almost 2% of another race.
-This leaves room for discussion of how differently socialized areas may play a part. ]]> 2020-12-09 20:26:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1003974698 ktrillha19 https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1004032937 Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention]]> 2020-12-09 20:43:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1004032937 ktrillha19 https://padlet.com/ktrillha19/criminaltheory/wish/1004066741 It is apparent that a multitude of factors influence a juveniles involvement in offending. When they come from a lower socioeconomic household, have neglectful or absent parents, are not successful in school activities and in the curriculum, and are unable to meet many of the normal goals, they may turn to delinquency to cope.

General Strain Theory can be narrowed down to explain why many individuals choose to engage in delinquent acts when they cannot achieve the same goals as their peers. Substituting alternative methods, delinquent ones especially, give insight into how some goals may need to be adjusted to help more juveniles achieve them.
