Abstract:
Vandalism is an act of destroying goods, facilities, or environmental arrangements that are carried out intentionally without the owner's permission and is a form of aggression. The act of aggression is caused by several factors, one of which is the personality of the individual. This study aims to: (1) Know the level of the big five personality traits (2) Knowing the level of vandalism (3) big five personality is a predictor of vandalism behavior in students. This study uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive causality design. The sample of this study amounted to 90 people. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling with the characteristics of being students of class XI Science, Social Sciences, and Language at SMAN 02 Batu. The instruments used are in the form of a scale of vandalism and short scale and extra-shorts forms of big five inventory. Analysis of the data used is descriptive analysis techniques and simple regression analysis used to determine whether the big five personality is a predictor of vandalism behavior in students. The results of the analysis obtained several conclusions as follows: (1) generally the level of vandalism in class XI students of SMAN 02 Batu is in the high category; (2) extraversion, conscientiousness, and neuroticism traits in SMAN 02 Batu students are generally in the low category, while trait agreeableness and openness are generally in the high category. (3) extraversion trait is a predictor of vandalism behavior in students of SMAN 02 Batu, (R equal 0.382 R square 0.088 sig. 0.004 less than 0.05). The results of this study are suggested that the schools make prevention efforts such as deflecting offenders to change destructive behavior into activities that have positive values. For further research, it is expected to be able to examine more in the aspects that exist in each variable, as well as the factors that influence the two variables. Vandalisme adalah suatu tindak yang dilakukan dengan sengaja merusak lingkungan dan merupakan bentuk dari agresi. Ada beberapa faktor yang menyebabkan tindakan tersebut, salah satunya kepribadian dari individu. Penelitian ini bertujuan: (1) Mengetahui tingkat trait kepribadian big five (2) Mengetahui tingkat vandalisme (3) big five merupakan aspek prediksi perilaku vandalisme pada siswa. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif kausalitas. Sampel penelitian ini berjumlah 90 orang. Teknik sampling yang digunakan adalah purposive sampling dengan karakteristik yaitu merupakan siswa kelas XI IPA, IPS, dan Bahasa di SMAN 02 Batu. Istrumen yang digunakan berupa skala vandalisme dan skala short and extra-shorts forms of big five inventory. Analisis data yang digunakan adalah teknik analisis deskriptif dan analisis regresi sederhana yang digunakan untuk mengetahui apakah kepribadian big five sebagai prediktor perilaku vandalisme pada siswa. Hasil analisis diperoleh beberapa kesimpulan sebagai berikut: (1) umumnya tingkat vandalisme pada siswa kelas XI SMAN 02 Batu berada pada kategori tinggi; (2) trait extraversion, conscientiousness, dan neuroticism pada siswa SMAN 02 Batu secara umum pada kategori rendah, sementara trait agreeableness dan openness secara umum pada kategori tinggi. (3) trait extraversion merupakan prediktor perilaku vandalisme pada siswa SMAN 02 Batu, (R sama dengan 0,382 R square 0,088 sig. 0,004 kurang dari 0,05). Hasil penelitian ini disarankan agar pihak sekolah melakukan upaya pencegahan seperti, deflecting offenders guna mengubah perilaku perusakan menjadi kegiatan yang memiliki nilai positif. Bagi penelitian selanjutnya diharapkan untuk dapat mengkaji lebih dalam aspek-aspek yang ada pada masing-masing variabel, serta faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi dari kedua variabel

Abstract:
Vandalisme di perpustakaan merupakan tindakan perusakan yang dilakukan oleh manusia terhadap koleksi maupun fasilitas yang ada di perpustakaan. Bentuk dari tindakan vandalisme terhadap bahan pustaka diantaranya corat coret, menandai dengan bolpoint atau stabilo, memberi tanda sebagai batas baca, melipat bahan pustaka, merobek, mengambil sebagian halaman bahan pustaka, menggunting gambar, mencopot stiker, penambahan tulisan serta mengotori bahan pustaka. Perpustakaan sekolah tidak terlepas dari bahaya vandalisme, salah satunya tindakan perobekan terhadap bahan pustaka. Hal yang dapat dilakukan pustakawan dalam mengatasi perobekan bahan pustaka yaitu dengan mengadakan kegiatan sosialisasi, melakukan kerjasama dengan guru kelas, melakukan kerjasama dengan orang tua siswa dan memberikan sanksi yang tegas terhadap pelaku perobekan bahan pustaka. ABSTRACT Vandalism in the library is an act of destcution committed by humans agains collection or facilities in the library. The form of vandalism against library materials such as scribbled marks, marked with ballpoint or highlighter, gave punctuation marks, forl library materials, rips, tore the page, removes stickers, attaches additives and contaminates library materials. The school library is inseparable from the dangers of vandalism, one of the act is tapping the materials. The things that librarians can do in overcoming library materials is by holding socialization activities, cooperating with teachers, parents and giving strict sanctions against the perpetrators of tapping library materials.

Abstract:
Crude oil has been the mainstay of the Nigerian Economy for decades. However, vandalism, oil theft and bunkering are flourishing criminal activities that have impeded the growth of the oil sector and invariably the economic development of the country. The study explored the modes of operation used by vandals and the networks of individuals involved in the vandalization of the oil pipelines in Arepo area of Ogun State, Nigeria. Using largely qualitative method of data collection, 25 participants were purposively selected while opinion were sampled and gathered through in-depth (IDI) and key informant interviews (KII). A total of 15 IDIs was conducted to sample opinions of NSCDC members while 10 KIIs conducted comprised of Arepo community leaders and residents. Successful vandalisation of oil pipelines in Arepo community occurred majorly due to the connivance of the security agents and the sponsors of vandalization (usually influential Nigerians). Some members of Arepo town acted as informants to vandals while they were in return provided with the proceeds of vandalism. Findings further showed that the terrain of buried pipelines influenced successful vandalism operation and impede surveillance. Although vandalism soared higher during raining season, the vandals operated mostly at night. Vandals had uniforms, used hotels as hide outs and made use of encoded words to disguise their operations. Arising from the study’s findings, satellite tracking of geo information system will effectively enhance the policing of the networks of pipelines rather than relying on state agents.

Abstract:
The main objective of this paper is to detect vandal and vandalism by monitoring recorded video sequences. Vandalism is one of the most commonly occurring crimes in the society that indirectly affects the economy of the country. The proposed algorithm takes in the input from the video extracted from surveillance camera which prevails in public places. Further, it is converted into frames and subtracted with the background to detect the foreground object. The background subtracted image contains both human and non-human moving objects. In order to differentiate human pixels and other moving objects in the video sequence, discriminative features are extracted using deep architecture and classified using SVM classifier. Deep features proved to be highly discriminative when compared with the handcrafted Histogram of Oriented Gradients features. By analyzing the dwell time of the person in the restricted scene and his motion pattern with time and significant change in background vandalism act is declared and the person is considered as vandal. The proposed method was evaluated on the videos collected from You Tube with the contents taken during night time, multiple vandals, car vandals etc.

Abstract:
Vandalism is a problem for many communities across Scotland negatively affecting the lives of people who live in them. Whilst there has been recent research into the broad phenomena of anti-social behaviour, there has been little recent research into the specific phenomena of vandalism. In particular, little is understood about why vandalism often persistently re-occurs year in year out in particular locations. Wider research into crime and place suggests that, opportunities to commit crime, levels of relative deprivation, and the capacity or belief that a community can work together (collective efficacy) may be relevant factors. Other theories suggest some areas may act as crime attractors or be more criminogenic than others. There is a strong need for a better understanding of why certain places experience persistent vandalism and others do not. This thesis seeks to redress that gap by suggesting that to understand the nature of vandalism it is best understood as a crime of place rather than property. By drawing on theoretical and methodological approaches from both criminology and geography the thesis explores whether some areas experience high and low concentrations of vandalism year on year; if patterns change over time and whether areas with differing levels of vandalism share characteristics. Exploring issues related to crime and place presents specific methodological challenges. In criminology there has been much debate about whether it is best to consider crime and place processes at the micro or macro level. This thesis contributes to this debate by contending that it is necessary to employ a multi-method approach which integrates both micro and macro levels of investigation to properly understand crime and place. The results presented here are based on secondary analysis of six years of recorded crime data on vandalism supplied by Lothian and Borders police covering the period 1 April 2004 to 31 March 2010 for a case study area within Edinburgh with a broad mix of socio-demographic contexts. The thesis investigates the value of taking an Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis approach combining GIS based Crime Mapping and LISA (Local Indicators of Spatial Autocorrelation) analysis with Group Trajectory Analysis. This is complimented by data acquired from holding focus groups with Police Officers responsible for neighbourhood policing who used shaded maps to aid discussion of characteristics of areas with high and low vandalism. Findings suggest there are distinct High, Low and Drifting areas of vandalism with particular characteristics influenced by crime attractors, routine activities, relative deprivation and collective efficacy. By using an innovative multi-method ESDA quantitative and qualitative approach, important insights into the nature of vandalism as a place crime are gained; using a multi-spatial and temporal approach was found to be crucial. Findings are somewhat confined as they relate to a single case study area and a small number of focus groups were undertaken only with police Officers and not other community actors which may limit generalisabily. These concerns are discussed along with recommendations for future policy on vandalism and theoretical and methodological approaches for researching crime and place.

Abstract:
School vandalism is a serious problem in South Africa, particularly, as it places a heavy burden on education budgets. It could also cause learning to collapse, since it infringes on the right of learners to be taught in clean, well kept school buildings, and to develop their full potential. It is generally accepted that cared for school facilities, adequate furniture and equipment, as well as clean ablution facilities, are conducive to a healthy learning environment. The aim of this research was to determine whether vandalism at schools in Nelson Mandela Metropole (NMM) has an influence on learners’ scholastic achievement. Against the background of the literature review, this investigation endeavours to report on the nature and extent of vandalism at a sample of South African schools, as well as preventative measures that be introduced to combat such vandalism. The research comprised of a study of relevant literature, followed by a qualitative research design. The literature study covered aspects regarding the nature, extent and consequences of vandalism at schools. The sample group consisted of learners, teachers and parents from four secondary schools in the western region of the Uitenhage District. The respondents completed questionnaires regarding their viewpoints on the role that the school, the parents, the community, the police and the media could play in curbing acts of vandalism at schools. The respective principals and some members of staff were also interviewed. The research revealed that both teachers and learners were of the opinion that preventative measures need to be put in place to combat the scourge of vandalism at schools. However, such programmes should be implemented in collaboration with the community, the parents, the South African Police Services and the media. In conclusion some recommendations were made to combat the scourge of vandalism at schools and these may be of value to all schools in South Africa that experience similar problems.

Abstract:
Vandalism is a complex phenomenon with no easy or single solution. A definition of vandalism underscores this complexity. It is defined as, inter alia, the intentional damaging or destroying of objects belonging to others, the voluntary degrading of environments with no profit motive, acts of which the results are considered as damage by the actors as well as the victim in relation to the norms that govern the situation, and the wilful or malicious destruction, injury, disfigurement, or defacement of property without the consent of the owner. Such social anti-behavioural acts are, however, both internationally and nationally spreading like a virus. Since schools are increasingly being regarded as soft targets for vandalism, which turns them into dangerous and unsafe places for teaching and learning, this study focused on a programme for dealing with vandalism in schools. The aim was to determine the effects of school vandalism on the education system, investigate the effects thereof on effective teaching and learning and to - on the basis of the findings obtained from both an in-depth literature study and empirical research design - make suggestions for an inclusive programme which schools can use to assist learners to develop responsible attitudes and behavioural patterns. An ecosystemic programme was selected as it allowed for a more holistic approach to assess vandalism, as a societal phenomenon, and to provide support/solutions to overcome such a phenomenon. Using Bronfenbrenner’s ecosystemic model of child development, in addition, enabled the researcher to examine the multiple effects and interrelatedness of vandalism, holistically in school environments. The family, community and school as environmental systems children experience during their development were, accordingly, addressed by employing a systems way of thinking. The nature and scope of the study are outlined in chapter one. Background information on the prevalence of vandalism in South African schools, which lead to the statement of the research problem, is presented.. In line herewith, the research aims and objectives are highlighted in this chapter. Within the parameters of an ecosystemic approach, the research methodology, incorporating the research paradigm, design, sampling methods as well as the data collection, analysing and interpretation strategies, are addressed. In order to redefine the research questions, chapter two consists of a discussion of the data obtained through an in-depth literature study on an ecosystemic model and theory as well as a systemic way of thinking. Whilst referring to Bronfenbrenner’s ecological model of child development, this chapter also outlines the dynamic processes of child development. Chapter three elaborates on the information set forward in chapter two, by explaining the different environmental systems children experience. By outlining their different elements and referring to the interdependence between them, the family, community and school as systems are discussed. The application of an ecosystemic theory to school and community interventions are, in addition, discussed. Within the parameters of an ecosystemic framework, acts of vandalism are scrutinized. By demonstrating the social contents and the underlying assumptions regarding school vandalism, the latter is defined and its causes, impact and effect on teaching and learning in South Africa are addressed with the aim of guiding the study in an explanatory way. After applying an ecosystemic theory to school and community interventions, chapter three also outlines the historical background and origin of vandalism, the vandal, the characteristics of vandals, specific motivational factors behind vandalism as well as the negative effects thereof. Following the latter, the causes of vandalism and possible prevention strategies are also identified. Chapter four, in addition to chapter one, deals with the research design and methodology as well as the issues of measurement in more detail. Flowing from this chapter, chapter five includes the responses obtained from the participants followed by a discussion of the findings according to the data obtained from the interviews and field notes. An interpretation of the findings is provided, recommendations are made and specific limitations of the study are, moreover, identified. The study ends with a summary of the research conducted and by presenting the final findings which, in turn, lead to proposing various recommendations

Abstract:
Interpretation in both national and state parks provides more than mere entertainment to the visitor. Interpretation has been proven to be an effective deterrent to littering, vandalism and the deterioration of natural park resources. The focus of this research is to determine whether high quality programs, a large number of programs, and/or a diversity of programs offered by Indiana state parks attract a higher percentage of the total number of visitors entering a park facility to an interpretative event.The subjects need in this research were the state parks of Indiana. Data was obtained from a weekly form (SP-48) used by the Indiana parks. SP-48 forms from 1987 through 1990, Memorial Day through Labor Day weekend, were used: the total number of programs incorporated into this study was 20,595. The parks were divided into categories (all parks, year-round parks, and seasonal parks) and groups (high, medium and low number of facilities) to provide a similar statistical grouping for analysis.The factors studied were paired and regression analysis were performed on each pairing. Correlation coefficients indicated that an increase in the quantity of programs offered was highly correlated (p<001) to an increase in the percent of gate entrants participating in an interpretive event. Presentation diversity was significantly related to either of the above variables.

Abstract:
The oil and gas multinational companies (MNCs) in the Niger Delta continue to face numerous challenges operating in the region, especially concerning the loss of revenue. Based on the resource dependence theory, the purpose of this correlational study was to examine the relationship between oil theft, pipeline vandalism, security costs, and revenue. Eighty-eight mid- to high-level managers of oil and gas completed the Factors That Affect Company Revenue instrument. The results of the multiple linear regression analyses indicated the model was able to significantly predict revenue, F(3,88) = 947,279.44, p < .001, R2 = 1.000. All 3 predictors contributed significantly to the model, with pipeline vandalism recording the highest beta value (Ã? = .553, p = .000), the oil theft predictor with the next highest beta weight (Ã? = .451, p = .000), and the security costs predictor with the next highest beta weight (Ã? = .387, p = .000). The leaders of the oil and gas MNCs could use the outcome of this study in creating strategies and policies that guide their operations in the region, which would improve the relationship with host communities and mitigate their efforts in reducing the loss of revenue. Improved relations would result in a reduction of oil theft, pipeline vandalism, and security costs, thereby reducing revenue losses. The implication of positive social change includes implementation of more corporate social responsibility strategies and improving the economy of the region and the livelihood of the host communities.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to explain the reasons why some residential areas have substantially more vandalism than others. Various theories are critically examined in the first three chapters in relation to their applicability in explaining spatial patterning of crime and delinquency. A new town, which had visibly highly different levels of vandalism on different housing estates, was chosen for study. Secondary data, commissioned by the Skelmersdale Development Corporation, was analysed to see if the vandalised and non-vandalised areas had other distinquishing characteristics - demographically and socio-economically. Six main hypotheses were constructed for testing in Skelmersdale. A random stratified sample of householders were interviewed regarding their attitudes towards victimisation and tolerance of crime and delinquency. Householders were interviewed on both "problem" and "non-problem" housing estates. The Data was then analysed by using the SPSSx computer package. The main conclusion is that it is necessary to adopt a holistic approach to more fully understand the complex processes which produce "problem" and "non-problem" residential areas. This means viewing the phenomena of vandalism by looking at the delinquents, the housing market, macro economics and social and cultural structures. In explaining vandalism no one theory, such as defensible space, will do. We need to take into account a multitude of factors - such as the relative desirability of housing areas, tenants self selection processes, housing allocation processes, conduct norms, informal social control mechanisms, the existence of empty houses and the opportunity to commit vandalism etc. All these will have different degrees of importance in different housing areas. The reasons for vandalism will be relative to the place where it is committed.

Abstract:
In den letzten zehn Jahren lag die Kriminalitätsbelastung in der Äußeren Neustadt durchweg über dem gesamtstädtischen Durchschnitt. In der Polizeilichen Kriminalstatistik (PKS) wurden in diesem Zeitraum etwa zweimal mehr Straftaten je 100.000 Einwohnerinnen und Einwohner erfasst als in Dresden insgesamt. In den letzten fünf Jahren ist in der Äußeren Neustadt ein starker Anstieg einzelner Kriminalitätsbereiche in der PKS zu beobachten (z. B. Gewaltdelikte, Rauschgiftdelikte). Die Bewohnerinnen und Bewohner des Viertels scheinen diesen Anstieg auch wahrzunehmen: In einer schriftlichpostalischen Bürgerbefragung des SiQua-Projektes1 gaben 44 % der befragten Neustädterinnen und Neustädter an, dass sich die Sicherheit in ihrem Wohngebiet während der letzten fünf Jahre verschlechtert hat. Außerdem berichten die Neustädter Befragten im Durchschnitt deutlich mehr Opfererlebnisse in Bezug auf Kriminalität als die Dresdnerinnen und Dresdner insgesamt. Hervorzuheben ist aber, dass sich die Befragten der Äußeren Neustadt dennoch nicht unsicherer fühlen als Befragte der meisten anderen Stadtteile Dresdens. Im Gegenteil: Die Neustädterinnen und Neustädter gaben sogar im Durchschnitt häufiger an, dass sie sich nachts, zu Fuß alleine in ihrem Wohngebiet sicher fühlen. Die Anwohnerinnen und Anwohner der Äußeren Neustadt zeigen eine große Toleranz gegenüber den Partygästen und herumstehenden oder sitzenden Menschengruppen in ihrem Viertel. Alles in allem stören sie sich eher an den negativen Erscheinungsformen eines Partyviertels, weniger jedoch an den Menschengruppen und Gästen selbst. Immer wieder werden Abfall, Pöbeleien und Vandalismus als Störfaktoren benannt. Pöbeleien (Provokationen, Anschreien oder Beleidigungen) werden als eines der größten Probleme im Stadtteil wahrgenommen. Die Befragten halten es für sehr wahrscheinlich, in den nächsten zwölf Monaten angepöbelt zu werden. Die befragten Neustädterinnen und Neustädter sind sich des Spannungsfelds zwischen Party und Wohnviertel sehr bewusst. Aber die allgemeine Sicherheitswahrnehmung wird nicht nur von dieser Thematik bestimmt. Von den abgefragten Problemlagen im Stadtteil belegt „rücksichtsloses Verhalten im Straßenverkehr” einen der vorderen Plätze, noch vor Pöbeleien, Streit und Schlägereien oder Problemen im Zusammenhang mit Drogen. Mit dem Blick auf mögliche Ansätze der kommunalen Präventionsarbeit bevorzugen die Neustädterinnen und Neustädter vorbeugende Maßnahmen. In Ihren Augen können Probleme nicht nur mit repressiven Mitteln gelöst werden. Angebote und Hilfen für Jugendliche, mehr Möglichkeiten zur Bürgerbeteiligung, mehr Zivilcourage und mehr Sozialarbeiterinnen und Sozialarbeiter werden als sinnvoll erachtet. Kritische Einstellungen lassen sich gegenüber mehr Videoüberwachung auf öffentlichen Plätzen und mehr privaten Wachdiensten feststellen.
