I will make Discussion 3 short and easy. In this chapter we discuss the different methods for measuring crime. So I want you to cover two questions for me, but the second question has a multi-part answer: 1) What do we mean when we say "the dark figure of crime?" 2) Looking at the three major methods for measuring crime (UCR, NIBRS, and Surverys), give me pros and cons of each?
