AB - Abstract The present study was concerned with the relationships between 10 attributes of self-control potentially relevant to the criminal act, seriousness of the crime, and successful/unsuccessful parole outcome. Two-hundred male felon parole cases were studied, equally divided by success or failure on parole and by black or white race. The major results indicated that (a) criminals committing violent crimes were better parole risks than those committing non-violent crimes; (b) successful parole is associated with less self-controlled crimes, especially in the case of blacks; (c) crimes of violence involved less self-control than non-violent crimes; and (d) the violent crimes of successful parolees were less self-controlled than the violent crimes of unsuccessful parolees.
