Objective: Crime is an undesirable social phenomenon. Crime commitment and its growth threaten economic and social security. Crime leads to security enhancement and disciplinary costs, and social and private costs, as well, and as a result it leads to reduction in social welfare.

A questionnaire is used for collecting the required information of the research. N=340 including all the criminals of "Semnan Central Prison" who arrested by police because of committing various crimes. The sample includes 125 prisoners calculated and achieved through using Cockran formula. SPSS is used for statistical analysis of the research findings.Findings: Findings of the study indicated that the impact of achieving a better social situation, poverty, income limitations, and crime commitment record in the past cannot be ignored (95% assurance). The issue is confirmed in terms of economy and based on the research history and from statistics point of view. The descriptive statistics of sample data indicated that 60% of the criminals do not hold high school diploma, and 66% of them are between 15 and 35. The information indicates that low education level and being young, enhances the probability of individuals' contribution in criminal activities.Research findings: Explaining the economic reasons of crime commitment, and confirmation of the direct and significant relationship between economic factors such as crime and low income with crime commitment rate, and offering new approaches to be used in policy making system to combat crimes are the findings of the research.
