Concept information
Preferred term
shame and guilt
Definition
- Shame and guilt are widely regarded as “moral” emotions that deter criminal and immoral behavior, while also fostering corrective change following a transgression. It is surprising, then, that research on criminology and recidivism has devoted little attention to these emotions. [Source: Encyclopedia of Crime and Punishment; Shame and Guilt]
