Abstract | Explored black adolescent girls' perceptions of self-reported delinquent behaviors. Interviews with 11 black girls from alternative schools for delinquents indicated that all respondents used aggressive behaviors to protect themselves from perceived threats. "Hold off" strategies were used to avoid physical and/or verbal conflicts, and "face down" strategies were used to physically confront threats. Many girls felt let down by the very institutions intended to protect them. (SM) |
