"You ever had an urge before? Maybe a cigarette urge or a food urge, where you eat that and you got to have more and more? That's how that crack is. You smoke it and it hits you in the back of the throat and you got to have more. I'll smoke that sixteenth up and get through, it's like I never had none. I got to have more. Therefore, I gots to go do another burglary and gets some more money." - Participant No. 009

Lemert has labelled situations like these as "Dialectical, self-enclosed systems of behavior" in that they have an internal logic or _______, which calls for more of the same. Lemert states that participants experience considerable pressure to continue, even if this involves breaking the law.

The prompt provides a passage about Lemert’s idea of dialectical, self-enclosed systems of behavior and an accompanying question.

First, note that the question asks to fill in a blank: “...internal logic or ______, which calls for more of the same.” The key task is to identify the term that completes this description of the internal drive that sustains continued behavior.

Second, observe that the answer choices are not present in the provided data. Without a list of options, we cannot evaluate each candidate statement against the passage or identify which would be correct or incorrect.

Third, consider the likely academic framing: in discussions of self-enclosed behavioral systems, common descriptors include terms like internal logic, structure, logic, pattern, or mechanism. If the intended fill is “structure,” then the sentence would read: “internal logic or structure, which calls for more of the same,” which aligns with the notion of an inherent pattern driving continued action.

Fourth, regarding the provided purported correct answer “False Structure”: this term is not a standard label in classic sociological or criminological discussions of Lemert or similar theories. It seems unlikely to be the canonical answer for this blank, given typical terminology (structure, logic, mechanism). Thus, interpreting the prompt literally, “False Structure” would not coherently fit the linguistics of the sentence as commonly understood, and would be suspect as the correct choice unless the course material explicitly defines it that way.

Fifth, when evaluating a question with no options, one should be cautious about inferring an answer; the absence of options prevents a complete, option-by-option analysis. However, with the likely intended fill being “structure” or a similar noun describing an internal framework, the rationale would be that the internal framework creates a self-reinforcing pattern that compels further illegal or risky behavior.

Sixth, if you did receive actual answer options, each would require its own verdict: whether it correctly captures the notion of an internal, self-reinforcing logic; whether it introduces a term that is semantically and theoretically appropriate within Lemert’s framework; and whether it avoids introducing an unrelated or misnamed concept.

Seventh, in summary, due to the missing answer options, we cannot perform a definitive option-by-option evaluation. However, the discussed context suggests that the intended term is likely something like “structure” rather than the provided “False Structure,” which appears mismatched to standard terminology.
