520 |a A self-reporting questionnaire (57 items) was administered to all high school sophomores (599 completions) in 3 rural Ohio high schools for purposes of identifying correlations between selected social factors and acts of vandalism. The variables examined and the student responses indicated: 52% had committed 1 or more acts of vandalism; 37% were female and 68% were male; given the degree of their other crime involvement, females were more involved in vandalism than was expected; no correlation between religious affiliation and vandalism; no correlation between length of residence in the community and vandalism; positive correlation between the marital status of the student's household head and vandalism (more acts of vandalism were reported by students from broken homes); 10% lived in a one parent household; 11% of the heads of households were female; positive correlation between female household heads and older household heads (50 years and over) and acts of vandalism; vandalism was a group phenomenon (93% acted in groups); 39% reported alcohol consumption and 11% marijuana use at the time of vandalism; 47% used motor vehicles and 36% walked; autumn was the peak season (31%) and October and March the peak months for vandalism; 59% committed the vandalism act during the weekend and 36% during the afternoon; 6 out of every 10 acts were done for the "fun of it" and 12% to "get even"; 71% did not view their acts of vandalism as criminal.
