Answer to Question 2

 Males are more often the victims of delinquency than females.
 Younger people are more often targets than older people.
 African American rates of violent victimization are much higher than European American rates. Crime victimization tends to be intraracial.
 Self-report data show that a significant number of adolescents become crime victims. The NCVS may underreport juvenile victimization.
