CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
Street crimes are one of the leading index crime in the Philippines
particularly in the area of Metro Manila. Based on the data collected
by the PNP Directorate for Investigation and Detective Management
(DIDM), the National Capital Region (NCR) registered as the highest
total crime volume nationwide. It was accounted for 21 % (31, 022) of
the total 145, 056 crime volume in the country.
A Statistical Bulletin also shows that most of the victims of street
crimes are ages below 20 years old which are teenagers and children.

simpler words, this theory talks about how and why ordinary people
reasoned out their actions. With this theory, this study can explain
the reasoning of the victims of street crimes, if they are really
aware about the situation or not.
After the awareness, it further goes deeper with the affecting
factors and branches out to two factors: the people around or the
society
and
the
environment.

This study limits its coverage on teenagers who are aged 13-19
years old and reside in Barangay Concepcion Uno, Marikina City.
It's main purpose is to measure the awareness and capabilities
of these teenagers about astute things to remember when faced
in different crimes that may happen whenever they commute.
