question 41 (2 points)
a(n) ______ collects data from youths who report on their own delinquent acts.

a) self - evaluation survey

b) observational study

c) self - report survey

d) cohort study

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option a: A self - evaluation survey is more about evaluating one's own skills, performance, etc., not specifically about reporting delinquent acts.
• Option b: An observational study involves observing subjects without them reporting their own acts; the researcher observes.
• Option c: A self - report survey is a type of survey where participants report on their own behaviors, attitudes, etc. In this case, youths reporting their own delinquent acts fits the definition of a self - report survey.
• Option d: A cohort study follows a group (cohort) over time to study outcomes, not about self - reporting of delinquent acts.

Answer:

c) self - report survey
