Abstract

" Objective - This study aims to analyze crime dynamics in Chicago by examining the predictive relationship between crime categories and arrest frequencies using regression analysis. Methodology - A quantitative research design was applied using secondary data from the Chicago Data Portal. Regression analysis was performed to evaluate how crime categories predict arrest patterns. Findings - The results reveal a strong, positive, and statistically significant relationship between crime categories and arrest frequencies (R² = 0.613, β = 0.783, p
