289 Although, in general, these two analyses produced expected results, a few unexpected results suggest interesting inferences. In both analyses, the partial correlation coefficients for U (with and respectively) were greater than those for any other independent variables, and the absolute value of the standard partial regression coefficient for U in both equations was larger than those for the other independent variables in the equations. Also, the regression coefficient of Y in both equations (124) and (125) were not significant at any acceptable level of significance; correspondingly, the partial correlation coefficient and the standard partial regression coefficient for Y in both analyses were the smallest of all the independent variables in each analysis. Table 32 shows that the rate of male unemployment and median family income are associated. But these analyses of crime rates indicate that high crime rates are associated with unemployment but not median family income. In other words, crime rates are high not so much because of relative poverty but because of unemployment. These conclusions suggest that crime rates might be reduced through effective policies and programs to reduce the rate of male unemployment.
