Abstract

Citing studies in which convicted robbers have been interviewed to determine their motives and what factors may have deterred them from committing a planned robbery, the author traces patterns of violence at convenience stores over the past 20 years. She points out that because two thirds of workplace homicides are robbery-related, any efforts to stem the number of robberies will probably also curb the number of homicides.
