Discuss the different ways research has tested social disorganization theory, using peer-reviewed articles as examples. You should discuss how social disorganization is defined, the data used to measure these concepts, and how different definitions and measures matter for testing a theory. Have these tests found support for social disorganization theory?

(Hint: Be sure to look at the tests mentioned in Walker and Zawisza (2014), and the other tests of social disorganization we read in class.)
