TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - New developments and implications for understanding the victimization of gang members JO - Violence and victims A1 - Fox, Kathleen A. SP - 1015 EP - 1040 VL - 28 IS - 6 N2 - Despite a long line of research establishing a connection between gang membership and delinquent or criminal behavior, less is known about gang members' exposure to victimization. Among the few published studies that have recently investigated the gang-victimization link, findings are mixed and our understanding of this relationship remains unclear. This study offers a synthesis of the emerging gang-victimization literature by highlighting methodological and theoretical advancements and limitations within the field. Specific recommendations are presented to guide future research.
