Which term describes the field encompassing law enforcement and the legal system?

• A. Psychology in Criminology
• B. Sociology in Criminology
• C. Criminal Justice Sector
• D. Entry Procedure

Answer: (C)

The field described is the Criminal Justice Sector. It covers the network of agencies and institutions that enforce laws, adjudicate cases, and administer punishment and rehabilitation—basically police, courts, and correctional systems working together. In criminology, this sector is studied to understand how crime is investigated, how justice is carried out, and how policies and practices affect outcomes for individuals and society. The other options point to different lenses—psychology in criminology looks at mental processes and behavior, sociology in criminology examines social factors and structures—rather than the whole system that enforces and applies the law. An entry procedure isn’t about the field itself.
