A comment by H. W. Osborne on SA 1636/D5394. It is stated that J. P. Gibbs, acting upon the premise that punishment (defined here operationally as imprisonment) may be deterrent value, constructs 2 indices of estimated severity & estimated certainty of imprisonment; he concludes that states with higher indices of severity & certainty should have lower homicide rates & vice versa. The evidence from Southern states does not bear this out; but the question should be left open. It should, however, be emphasized that if norms are not internalized, the punitive reaction will have little or no efficacy. REPLY by J. P. Gibbs (U of Texas, Austin) says that, although Osborne agrees that the deterrent efficacy of punishment should be left an open question, his assertion about the efficacy of norms is not in accord with his argument. His analysis of state exceptions to the general rule indicates a need to consider etiological factors in the efficacy of deterrence. I. Langnas.
