Inhaltsangabe

Sommers (School of Criminal Justice, California State University-Los Angeles) and Baskin (chair, School of Criminal Justice, California State University-Los Angeles) report on the results of a study on the relationship between methamphetamine use and violence, drawing on a sample of 205 in-depth, life-history interviews with heavy users. The authors conclude that, while methamphetamine use heightens the risk for violence, there is no evidence of a single, uniform path that all chronic users follow, and that violence is not always an inevitable outcome of even chronic methamphetamine use.
