    Which of these is not a means of controlling juvenile delinquency? - ProProfs

    Which of these is not a means of controlling juvenile delinquency?

    • Indirect control

    • Physical control

    • Internal control

    • Direct control

    Correct Answer
    A. Physical control
    Explanation
    Physical control is not a means of controlling juvenile delinquency because it refers to the use of physical force or restraint to control behavior, which can be harmful and ineffective in addressing the root causes of delinquency. Instead, effective strategies for controlling juvenile delinquency focus on indirect control (such as prevention programs and community support), internal control (such as promoting positive values and self-discipline), and direct control (such as appropriate legal consequences and interventions).
