This chapter deals with crime victimization and fear of crime, with a focus on numerous factors that appear to be correlated with (a) being the victim of crime and (b) fearing criminal victimization.

Less commonly studied traits deal with personality and the degree of exposure to mass media coverage on criminal behavior.
