Criminology is the scientific study of crime and criminals. It is also a study in constant evolution because of the people who make up our society, whose political, economic and spiritual opinions are taken into account. Robert Agnew, an important man in the world of criminology, was born on December 1, 1953 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Agnew, fortunately, is still alive and sixty years old. He attended Rutgers College, a school in New Jersey, where he received his Bachelor of Arts in sociology, although he received his master's and doctorate in sociology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Sociology being the study of the functioning of human society. Agnew discovered his passion for teaching after working as a teaching assistant and as associate editor of the Social Forces Journal for a few years.

What Robert Agnew is trying to say with this is that an individual in society is faced with negative stimuli and they have four different ways to deal with it. He may avoid negative stimuli, attenuate negative stimuli, or seek revenge on the person from whom these negative stimuli came, or finally, resort to illegal drugs to forget the negative stimuli...
