This research study seeks to supplement the plethora of research around this area.

Utilizing structural-functionalist ideology, the hypothesis being tested here is that the more relatives one has to call on for help if needed, and other related variables, the lower tendency that individual will have to violently react. The data was taken from The National Survey of American Life collected through a multi-stage sample design combined a ‘core’ national area probability sample of households and analyzed using multiple regression techniques.

In 2002 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that “[e]ach year, about 56,000 violent deaths occur in this country,[and][v]violencerelated death and injuries cost the United States $107 billion in medical care and lost productivity”(CDC) . In many cases, these circumstances provide ways for researchers to discover the causes of violent acts to implement effective interventions that will decrease violence, which in turn will decrease violent-related deaths and government spending. In recent years, scholarly discussions pmarily focus on how family violence impacts an individual’s propensity to behave violently in other areas of their lives. However, there have been discussionson how available family members can support the individual and impact his or her tendency tobe violent. This paper seeks to expand research on that subject, specifically analyzing how the number of family relatives an individual can call on for help will impact one’s propensity to act violently, with the hope of garnering support for programs seeking to improve the family unit and its strength, particularly within the African American demographic.  \nLiterature Review  \nThe most current state of knowledge analyzes how drugs, alcohol, social capital, gender, age, religion, and media impact violent behavior. These independent variables are often used as causal entities that influence individuals to make certain decisions that are deemed by society as deviant and violent. The social understanding of deviance and violence plays a huge role in exploring this subject as well.
