International Self-Report Delinquency Study (ISRD)
China
The ISRD4 project will be administered in two cities of China. The first one would be Shenzhen, a coastal city in the Eastern region of China and one of the four most developed cities in China. The second one would be Chongqing, a typical city in the Western region of China (the West is less developed). We have submitted several grant applications for this project. The results would be known by the end of June 2021. A small amount of funding has been secured from the Collaborative Research Fund, Department of Sociology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
