摘要

本研究係以理性選擇觀點為基礎，從犯罪者角度出發，試圖建構住宅竊盜犯罪歷程，用以解釋住宅竊盜犯罪行為。經分析3位住宅竊盜犯罪者之訪談紀錄，發現犯罪歷程具有以下特性：
一、住宅竊盜犯罪具有目的性，且個體從事犯罪行為時，必須歷經多個選擇階段的過程，依序為犯罪動機、犯罪人數、犯罪時間、犯罪地區、犯罪住宅、標的物、標的物處理方式等7個階段。每一階段都是由犯罪者「運用訊息」以及「選擇結果」所構成。
二、在7個犯罪歷程階段中，犯罪者會運用「與他人之關係」、「與標的物的關係」、「社會環境」、「犯罪經驗」等訊息，進行選擇。
三、當犯罪者所運用訊息出現變化，將導致犯罪歷程發展。而犯罪者犯罪生涯愈長時，犯罪歷程發展軌跡愈明顯。
文中深入探討理性選擇諸多觀點，並與莊忠進（2003; 2006）進行比較，更於文末提出預防犯罪措施、研究方法與後續研究之建議。

Crime Opportunity Theory in social criminology (Living Styles/Exposure Model, Routine Activity Theory, Victim Events, Victim Characteristics, and Victim Structure Option Theory), Rational Choice in economics, Environmental Design in architecture (Defense Space and Prevention of Situational Crime) are always applied to burglary research which requires interdisciplinary theory and concept.

Theory exists with its meaning and valve from the perspective of disciplinary development. However, whether two theories contradict each other must be taken into consideration seriously when more than two theories are conducted in a research. Thus, this study is based on Rational Choice Theory, beginning with criminal’s role to explain burglary behavior and aiming at forming crime process.

The characteristics of crime process, based on the results of analysis of three interviews, include:
Burglary is purposive. When an individual commits a crime, he/she must experience a 7-phaase choice—motive, the number of criminal, time, region, residence, the target, and disposal of targets. Each phase consists of “use of information” and “choice result” by a criminal.
Choices are made by the criminal in the 7-phase choice, based on the information about “contact with others”, “the distance with the target”, “social environment”, and “criminal experience.”
The change of information leads to crime process. The longer a criminal commits a crime, the clearly crime process is found.

The study discusses about Rational Choice Theory, contrasting with the study by Juang, Jhung-jin (2003, 2006), and suggestions are presented for crime prevention, research methodology, and continuing research.
