Bike thief
Do you think that a nice pretty girl can steel a bike better than a guy. I think yeah sure why not if you have a nice body,a pretty face then you could probably get away with it. You could also have someone help you.Most guys if they see a young girl having trouble,most likely you might have them ask "you need a hand with that". On the show what would you do they tested this.Do you think anyone would anyone call the police or just go on with there life's. Durning this test some people would call the police even women telling on women.Others would say there just "helping a dandle in distress".There are stereotypes about how girls are not bad or cant be bad,but the truth is girls are bad and they can be sneaky.

Theories on the formation of attitudes and stereotypes include Social Learning, Social Cognition, Implicit Association. Resent studies have started to examine the effects media can have on attitudes…

There was this white male trying to take a bike, most everyone just walked past, but every once in a while, somebody stepped up. People were even trying to help him cut the chain. The black male was very different. Mostly everyone that walked by had something to say about it, a lot more than the white male.…

The data also depends upon the victim’s reactions which can lead to a “crime multiplier” if they commit the same crime to compensate for their…

In fact, according to one author, motor vehicle thefts are the number one under-researched part one crime (Jeffrey Walsh, 2007).

    Neorealism is a movement especially in Italian filmmaking characterized by the simple direct depiction of lower-class life. De Sica's finest achievement is bringing the previously ignored working classes to the screen. His primary aim in the Bicycle Thieves was to use the camera to show how people lived. The non-professional actors give fine performances and lend the film a documentary-like air, even though the narrative itself is fictional.…
